If this is the style of HD setup you have, then the dealer is just being a d!$%..
This is what I have and it's over 22 years old and my dealer installed it and adjusted the hitch head height to match the new trailer tongue, which was higher then my old TT.
They did that job while I was going thru the walk thru of the trailer. Didn't charge me any extra $$ either..
All they had to do was put the stirrups on the trailer tongue and then adjust the hitch head to match, which was adjustable to begin with.
Maybe your hitch is not rated for the size of the new TT you got?
My WD hitch head is #14,000 with a #12,000 ball on it. The bars are #1000 rated so well within the specs of the new TT I got and still have and it all still works just fine..
Good luck! Mitch
