Nice set up.
We had a topic somewhere about those coil-springs WD bars and it was pointed that it is crucial that chains will go in-line with the bar sleeves.
your 1st picture shows them with visible angle.
I also think your front is too light as my F350 has it at 4800lb, but if it steers OK, that's what you care about.
Yes. Seems like there would be only a limited number of trailer frame heights (4,5 6 inch etc).
but
I would shim under the lower bolt that holds the hitch to the trailer frame, this would take out some of the leaning angle that is causing the springs to point up in difference to the chains that are going parallel to the ground.
A flat metal bar. I just saw some at Homedepot, and you can get them in aluminum or steel. This should cause the metal bracket to be more align, so the chains exit smoothly from the square tube the spring is attached to.
Nice rig.
