Dual Cam Setup
I'm working on setting up a new Reese Dual Cam setup. I think I need a 1" extended ball, and wonder if I would benefit from a 2". Here's are some photos of where I'm at now: Side view, I think...

I want to stab at determining the WD force on your rig with the DC on 6 chain links and then running 9 links and no DC. When you took off your DC and put the chains on the WD bars, I "assuming" you did not change the hitch head angle. Please confirm, yes/no?
Correct. I'm pretty confident I was not returning all the weight to the front wheels. Also, the WD bars are 800 lb bars when not running DC (just easier to not swap chains). I may be able to get a measurement from the front bumper with and without the WD bars for the current setup.

When you removed the chain plate and went from 6 links to 9 links under tension you reduced the WD by a fair amount. 3 chain links with a pitch of 1.380" is 4.140". Subtracting the DC chain plate of 3", you are 1.140" longer on chain under load. OR 1.140" less preload on the WD bar. This is were the less WD came from.
I'm sure there was way less. I didn't want to bend my remaining snap up brackets so I was just trying to get some WD.
