The camper to do list:
-Get all 3 weights at the scales
-Check the bars for parallel to the TT frame
-Measure TT and TV for sag when loaded and unloaded
-Check bolt torque and bolt diameter on equalizer head
-Check to make sure wdh bars are flat on the L brackets
What else am I missing?
Just clarifing the TT sag, On a good solid and level spot, Level the TT with tongue jack. Determine a place on the A frame with the camper leveled up you can messure and come back to. Record that number.
See pic of where I do mine. Now you know what height is level

Then once hitched up, check that same dimisnion again. You can now declare if you are level, nose up or nose down and by how much. Leve if it occurs is best. You can only adjust within 1 hitch shank hole up or down. Next best after level is the be slightly nose down verses more nose up. Meaning it is better to be 1/2" low than 1/2 high if you have to pick. However 1" low is worse than 1/4" high which is OK, so we pick 1/4" high verse 1" low.
