As infrequently as you tow, I don't think you
need any additional equipment. I don't see any safety concerns with that set-up. If that trailer is loaded properly I don't see a need for sway control or weight distribution. Bags help take the weight off of your suspension to prevent sagging, but you should be well within payload with that trailer, so I don't see you sagging too much. I have Air Lift LiftLoader 5000 bags in my truck and LOVE them, but I do a lot of towing, and at night, which exacerbates the sagging problem because of inadvertently brighting people. The rear end does feel more solid, but my tongue weight can push 1,000 lbs. Does the trailer have brakes?
I'd say that you're safe for road testing and if it does sag and/or you feel squishy in the back, bags will help. With the size, shape, and weight of your trailer, I don't think a WDH or sway control will give you a benefit that is worth the cost and hassle.
