Pics of set up adjustment needed?

Hi all,
Finally got some pics of my 5er hitched up. On the bubble level the bubble is just inside of the two lines. Do you all think maybe I need to raise the pin box one hole? Hitch is set as low as it will go. I have 7 inches between the bed and the 5er. I also got my rear carrier from the TT transfered over and thought I would include a pic of it. Thanks, John

    That's what I thought it looks a bit nose high. I thought by raising the pin box that lowered the nose?

    You are correct, it would lower the nose.

    Just don't lower it so you have less than 6".

  • No I wouldn't raise it at all. It actually looks just a bit nose high now so I would leave it alone.
  • It looks good, 7" of clearance is great. To be sure weigh all your axles to see if they are close in weight and adjust if needed.
