Trailer towing hookup questions

I towed my 17' trailer on my Dad's 99 ram 150 with a 360 just fine without any drop hitch (sat level) or any sway preventers and you hardly knew it was there. My trailer also had hydrolic brakes so I don't know how the electric brakes feel. I did all of my towing locally but a few friends went a few hundred miles also without any issue. I would suggest a trans cooler and make sure you don't tow while it's in overdrive,it will burn up your trans.
