Most of my camping is done without hookups and I’d like to be able fill the 43-gallon freshwater tank, but without better balancing that won’t happen. I’m currently using 600-800 pound spring bars on the WDH, but I’m considering upgrading to 800-1200 pound spring bars to help deal with the higher tongue weight when fully loaded.

>> DO get heavier BARS. Then before leaving on the trip, load that puppy up and then re-weigh it. OH and take a tape measure along to set your LEVEL of your TV . I do this by measuring the fender well top edge to the pavement,(both side) should be close to even. AND do this by using the chains to bring the trailer front and hitch up tight./snug. this throws weight on the front tire.
good luck. That TV should be able to handle the weight.
