Where to start with wdh adjustment for new truck?

Got rid of my Ram 1500 with 1300 payload for a Silverado 2500 with 3300 payload. Same Jayco x23b hybrid with 5-600lbs on the tongue. Equalizer hitch.

The 2500 sits higher so I know I will need to drop the hitch down a notch or 2. Where should I start with attachments on the A-frame?

    Haven’t tried it yet. Just got the truck last weekend and the camper is still in storage. I figured that I wouldn’t need the weight distribution, but my hitch has sway control. Probably still want that.
