Weight Distribution Hitch for Whitehawk 28BHKS?

I was just wondering what size of weight distribution hitch I should buy? I just bought a white hawk 28 BHKS the listed tongue weight is 710lbs and weight dry is 6200lbs fully loaded is 8200lbs. I forgot to look at the yellow sticker on the TT for actual weights. I was just looking to see if anyone else has this TT and what they are using/recommending. Thanks

I have a 28BHBE (similar weights) with an equalizer with 1,000# bars and it tows very nicely.

I have the same trailer with a 1000# blue ox and it tows well, very simple to setup, but keep it under 65 at all times!
