Yes definatly... Measuring the front wheel fender height only gives a ball park.
I assume you have a chain system? How many links were left? I think most say 5 links min...
Yes add more washers and crank it up. Get the weight back on the front. Dont worry about height. The scales dont lie..
The rule is to restore the weight to the front axle as close as you can get without going over from the stock truck alone weight.. Never go over .
Let us know.
Post back the weights when you fine tune and let us know that the ride quality improved or not...
Ford says measure the front fender rise with trailer connected and then adjust WD to get the fender half way back to unloaded condition. Maybe we should let them know they got it wrong in the owner's manual.


Chain has 9 links. I had it in the 7th link when it was weighed and then hitched it up to 6th link to get the front fender rise down to half of the rise (from 3/4" down to 3/8").
