Adding air to the bags is throwing off your original setup due to the increased angle between the TV and the TT.
The added air will cause the WDH to transfer less weight to the front and TT axles.
You need to scale it and get your hitch adjustments made. Then all will be good.
If not scaling it, it is somewhat of a guessing game, especially with heavier truck suspensions.
Understood. I knew that going into it. I've got it dialed in good and it tows well. I tried to be vague in the first post because I didn't want people to think I was having trouble setting it up.
My question really relates to front end rise and why it does not exist when I pump the airbags up to achieve unhitched height when weight distribution is not engaged. Because no weight is transferred to the front (without WDH), the front should still rise (theoretically?) when I hitch it up.
