My setup is an '04 Expy pulling a 6200# TT using the Reese DC (did the same bolt-thru-frame as you; I don't like them Reese bolts/screws...). Very little rear sag (1/2" to 3/4"), front is back even with 800# bars, and a tongue weight of 820#.
From all the reading I did prior to installing the DC setup (did it before 1st trip this year), I think your issue lies in the bars (1200#) vs. tongue weight (~920#) vs. tongue weight ratio (12%-15%). I'd start by weighing your TT at the scales, with and without the WD engaged.
Once done, adjust the DC links per the instructions (mine is set up at 5) and head out for a road test.
