Andersen Ultimate not working for me
I went from a Reese 16K slider to the Andersen ultimate. My trailer was very stable with the Reese, with the Andersen the trailer is constantly moveing around. It is bad enough that can feel it and it...

Since you've moved your hitch point further back, you've got more leverage for the FW to move the truck. It only takes a couple inches to get this. Unless I had a =very= light FW, compared to my truck, I'd never have the hitch point behind my axle center line.

I don't think he said he mounted it further back. I imagine if he has the rail mount he could move the rails back. If it's a gooseneck type ditto, he'd have to move the gooseneck back. The Anderson has no adjustment fore and aft.
If he has the rail version then you have two positions. You can rotate the base 180* depending on whether you have an SB or LB. You can also rotate the pin coupler.
If he has the pin coupler in front of the normal pin location and has rotated the Andersen to the rear for SB cab clearance then he's compounded the situation.
If you have the rail system or the gooseneck system there is only one way to put it on correctly. Sure, you probably can turn it around, but it isn't meant to do that. The Anderson hitch that sits in the bed of the truck has one position. The king pin adapter can be moved around and being it is 4" on center there is actually an 8" difference between the forward and rearward position.
If you have the gooseneck mount version the gooseneck is in front! If it's in back the hitch is installed wrong. Look at the PDF on their website. If you have the rail system again ditto, only one way to put it on.
