Change weight by adding washer to WD hitch?
If I add a washer to my WD hitch and use the same link on chain, will it improve my weight numbers? ie. help load steer axle. Is 60# off the steer axle worth worrying about? Just trying to dial it in...

Thanks for the help. This is the second time I've hit the scales with the new to us TT. We picked up the TT from a dealer, tossed in our gear from the old unit and went camping. The hitch was set up with use of a tape measure and eyeballed it. We weighed on the way home. It was just DW and myself, few cloths and a little bit of left over food.
After that, I lowered the hitch head by one hole and added a washer. We rearranged our stuff, added a tv, added more towels, dishes ect. It towed well on numerous local trips.
The current weight numbers were made while leaving on a 5 day trip we made to the beach with our DD. Loaded with all food, clothes, coolers, firewood, fishing gear, ect. It was almost 600 miles round trip and pulled fine. Just thought I might be able to fine tune the set up a bit.
