How level should your trailer be when towing?
I have my truck/trailer set up about as good as I can....but the trailer is still a little "nose high". I have the load bars tensioned so that the truck is just about perfectly level while towing.......

Also, you don't "level" the truck with the weight distribution bars.
You ignore backend squat, and work to return the front end of the truck to unloaded ride height. Newer vehicles recommend only returning HALF way to unloaded height...
If you are leveling the truck with the bars, you may be putting far too much pressure on the front of the truck, overloading the axle and potentially damaging the front suspension.
I forgot to mention...I have a set of firestone airbags on the rear of the truck that I put a little air in after I have the trailer hooked up....it doesn't really raise the rear much, but it sure make for a better ride.
