If you have the adjustment holes in shackles then why not 'level' 5th wheel and eliminate the nose-high condition :H
On my 5th wheel each hole resulted in 2" height difference.
As suggested follower car to watch what action is going on when braking.
Find it hard to imagine at 15K you can actually 'lock up' trailer brakes sufficiently to cause 'flat spotting' --------that takes some heavy skidding
Where do you park rig....do you have to 'maneuver' (jack rig in)?
