Thanks....I guess the pic posted. None of you see a problem with the spring bars being so low to the ground? I scrape so much with them like that. I lift the truck so high as it is just to get the second link hooked up there is no way I would be able to get any more chain links connected. I am 110 lb female hitching up, and the tension is just too much for me.

IF you get the chains in the correct link. your bars will not be so close to the ground. You will have pulled them up. They should be "level" / parallel with the tongue. They should NOT dip down at the chain.

Easiest way to get it right is to unhook on a level parking lot. Measure the front bumper to the ground. Hook back up. Measure the front bumper to the ground again. Now when you pull your snap brackets. You want to return the front bumper to at least half the distance it raised with out any chains hooked. So IF the first measurement was 20 inches, and the second measurement was 23 inches. You want the measurement with the chains pulled to be 21 1/2" or less. Less is better.

As mentioned. IF you use the trailer jack to raise the truck, and trailer. You can raise it high enough to snap the brackets with no effort. .
As your hitch looks now. It is doing nothing, or in other words. It is NOT distributing any weight off the rear axle, and you front axle is unloaded, and will in all likely hood, Cause sway.
