I cringe every time I see this. This is with the roller ball on and my wife says everything looks great. I think we need to take the roller ball off and use boards. This is the part of driveway that gives issue and it scrapes the hitch so that is why we added the roller ball.

With the pictures, it's an easy solution.
When you get to the point shown in the pictures, put a couple 2x10 boards behind the trucks rear axle (double them up if you need more height).
As you back up, the rear axle of the truck will ride up on the boards lifting the hitch with the rear axle.
Once you get the rear axle onto the driveway up-slope, you should no longer need the boards as the rear axle will be going up based on the driveway slope.
Keeping the WDH bars connected will help also as they reduce the hitch weight and thus the trucks rear springs from compressing as much...net result is the hitch will sit an inch or so higher.
