For a one time, short trip to load a tractor, I would not invest $500+ into a load leveling hitch. I would install the air shocks for that monies. I would load the tractor such that the front of the truck does not go up more then 2 inches and the rear does not go down by more then 1 1/2 inches. I think this puts between 500 and 800 pound load on the hitch. I use a 10,000 pound pintle hitch on my 2006 F150 FX4. I would be very concerned if you put only 200 pound load on the hitch.
If you were going to haul the trailer cross country, then the weight distribution htich is the way to go, providing you load the trailer to match the front and rear height change specs.
