Thanks for the replies everyone.
It is an Equal-i-zer hitch. The weights I listed are fully loaded trailer, tank of fuel, and the family for a 9 day trip,so typically there is a little less for supplies. This was however with an empty fresh water tank, which usually has water in it.
The weight of just the truck was everything loaded just as hooked up, without the trailer, but including the hitch and bars. The truck typically has zero gravity chairs and bins with kids sand and water toys.
Right now everything appears level. Like I mentioned, I have not measured. The wear on the L brackets and bars is even based off of the paint wear. The trailer is in storage for another month, so checking that will have to wait.
The tires are a P rated Goodyear Wrangler rated for 2469 Lbs with max pressure of 51 PSI. I have been running 45 in the rear and 38 in the front, which definitely helped compared to the 35 on the door post.
I am looking at upgrading to a 3500, but until that happens I want to get this dialed in.
When I get the trailer back I will work on adding some washers. Just wanted to make sure that that was the right direction to go, which it sounds like that is a good place to start.
Thanks again everyone!
