You say that you are not getting enough weight distributed, and then you say that you do not need the hitch head tilted down. These two statements alone say that you do not understand how a WDHitch works and what the parts are for.
Also, you do not level a trailer by the tilt of the hitch head. The head tilt is for adjusting the amount of preload of the WD bars, and therefor the amount of tension on them for a given number of chain links.
I ask you again to please take the time to read those two links I provided earlier to get your new hitch set up correctly. Your old one WAS NOT - based on your statements here.
