I thought the WD hitch transferred some of the tongue weight back to the trailer axle.

if you are towing 17,500 Lb. with a truck rated at say 11,00 Is this legal? I am impressed though! and what maybe your liability in an accident?

That would be illegal if you were stopped and they checked the trailer weight. If you were at fault in an accident, your insurance probably wouldn't cover you and say you were negligent.

I stand corrected, the WDH does that overall. I was focusing too hard on the question about the tow vehicle's capacity at the rear axle.
