A number of RED LIGHTS have been ID'd!
1. The Hensley and Propride weight distribution is absolutely no different than all the other common systems (weight distribution is not what is patented within these designs) and all of the hitch's weight must be included as tongue weight. Even the stinger!
If you currently weigh around 1500lbs anywhere up front (jack/coupler...whatever) you're already over the Hensley TW spec without adding anything else.
2. Weighing the trailer at the jack vs the coupler...you are losing a good foot of moment (lever) arm acting on the coupler thus likely not getting the full & accurate TW. Take the tongue weight at the coupler!
I know eTrailer shows pics of the TW taken from the jack, but you are on the edge and need a very accurate weight to know where you're at.
Now all that said, may or may not be part of your ride issue. You wont know until you change the balance of your trailer.
What is clear, is that you NEED to change the balance, if for no other reason than to get in spec of the Hensley. You're asking for head failure or at least premature bushing wear if you continue as is.
