My best recommendation would be to hit the scale. I had much the same issue you did when I upgraded from a F150 to my dodge 3500. Hitch heights the same but naturally the squat was different. Wheel base was much different also. All of my measurements were almost exactly the same but it didn't fit right. I dropped one hole on the shank and changed the tilt to add more tilt. Very small change but the scale told me I was right on and it felt better. I think you need a good tongue weight measurement and to see just how much you are transferring back. Front doesn't necessarily need to return to full unloaded weight/measurement as you don't want to take too much off the rear for the reason that you are experiencing. You may also just need to readjust the load in the TT.
