I have watched quite a few videos and have read a lot on the above suggested link. The problem was I thought the only thing that tilting the ball was for leveling the WD bars to the frame of the trailer.
My first problem was that I was getting some proposing during travel, not a constant but it was happening. After evaluating the setup It looked to me that the trailer was sitting a little nose high. Adjusted the hitch by dropping it down one hole. That seemed to level the trailer off, measured about an inch high measuring the frame to the ground. The front measurements were within the half inch that the specs called for on the year and make of the truck, but the back still sags about 2 inches. By lowering the hitch one hole seems to have lowered the WD bars. a little lower than I would like, seems to bottom out now pulling it out the driveway and on our last trip the bars were scrapping the ground at the campground some while driving up and down hills in the campground. This was making me wonder if I should raise the hitch back to the original location and try adjusting the angle of the ball.
