For your 2007 HS ADMIRAL SVE, your Hidden Hitch receiver sounds like it is capable of towing your trailer. The rated 5,000 lb capacity is without weight distribution, but from my research it is rated for 6,000 lbs with weight distribution just like the Curt # C13701. If you are needing a weight distribution system for this hitch receiver you likely will need a system rated for 15% of your total trailer weight. That puts you around 540 lbs roughly. You want a system that falls in the middle of, so I recommend the Strait-Line Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control - Trunnion Bar - 8,000 lbs GTW, 800 lbs TW # RP66083 which has a rating of 400-800 lbs. You will also need hitch ball # 19286.

For a heavier hitch like that, you will need to use a weld on option like the Buyers Products Class IV Service Body Short Hitch Receiver # 3371801055 or the # 3371801050 Class V trailer hitch. These are not bolt on but rather require welding directly to your trailer frame but they will give you the extra capacity you are seeking.
