So you never unload the weight off of the hitch? You only lower the landing gear so the trailer has something to land on and back up not forward?
Same with connecting. Always let the pinbox ride up the saddle a bit.
Yes sometimes there is fore/aft tension to release by nudging the truck forward or back a bit. Always chock the trailer and have the jacks down first. Sometimes I have DW move the truck a bit while I pull on the lever.
I shortened my cable with some crimp swagging from Home Depot. Look in the cable/rope section.
