How long before I can tow?

Weight distribution hitch?
Also wanted everyone to know that I broke in the truck properly by listing the 1025 on the odometer before towing.;)
 
Yeah, I have a weight distribution hitch. Not talking about trailer wandering. Talking about Duratracs wandering on new Tremors for the first how many ever miles. Just noting to people the mileage at the time my truck was still wandering. Now with 1500 miles she's straight and smooth.
The hitch transfers weight to the front tires so it has to be properly setup or you won’t get proper downforce on the front.

You are correct my friend.
A properly set up WDH will help with front end wondering also as it's job is to keep leverage on the pivot point to prevent wondering front and rear......sway control.
Just a quick simple setup tip:
Measure from ground to center of fender well empty , now drop tounge weight of trailer on hitch and take another measurement.
Setup trunnion bars or round bars to where the 2 measurements are split " indicating weight has been transferred " trailer should sit level or slightly nose down, done.

Yea the solid axle trucks tend to wander...Duratracs are part of the issue. Another issue is caster on your alignment...if you want to "plant" a superduty have an alignment shop raise caster to >4.0 degrees.....even 5.0...this will also eliminate death wobble from EVER occurring. All these are common issues that we all have been experiencing for the last year and more......
