I had a Reese SC years ago. As I recall, you want to chose a position on your shank so that the trailer sits close to level. I would prefer a position which is 1/2" low rather than 1 1/2" too high. Measure your hitch height unloaded and install the trailer. Adjust your spring bar tension by tilting the ball head down (increasing spring tension) so that your hitch height is 1/2" down from unloaded height. I believe this is how the manual instructed me. This process worked well for me towing 6,000# with a Nissan Titan, never any sway.
