I used to do the same with my old equalizer hitch on my older TT. Instead of using the snap tool to bring the torsion bars into the L brackets, I would raise the tongue a bit and just slide them in.
The Andersen Hitch has been on my trailer for about a year now and I love it.
Yours is a pretty typical experience. Most "users" appreciate the convenience, light weight, cleanliness, quiet, and sway resistance of the Andersen hitch. A few people that don't have them seem to have a lot of negatives to say about their value. As pointed out repeatedly, they are not the best at unloading a large amount of weight from an overloaded rear axle. Something with big old spring steel bars is much better suited for that.
My axle was NOT overloaded and the the Andersen was no good for me. I was a user, not a "user", and there was no way I could have raised the tongue enough to hook up without loosening the nuts. I just finished a 600 mile round trip with an equalizer and it was a much more relaxing drive withe the Equalizer. I have a 1200lb tongue weight and the Andersen couldn't handle it.
