I agree, to much trailer for my truck. I did park it on a level road and set up the hitch so trailer sits level with load hitch and some air in the air bags so back of truck drops maybe 1 1/2" or so when trailer is hooked on so I am pretty sure its not on the helper springs.
The hitch is probably not heavy enough for the trailer though. My brother in law had it left over from a camper he had, the camper he has was not near as big and heavy as my pace trailer is.
I will try and get it weighed up to see how heavy it really is.
