Question about WD Hitch adjustment???

Yep, the fewer links between bar and frame, the more weight distribution. Your truck manual should tell you about what the difference should be on the front axle between loaded and unloaded.

Are you sure about that???
For the Reese system that I have, it is the exact opposite. The fewer links that I have under tension, the shorter the distance between the trailer frame and spring bars. Therefore, more tension would be applied to the spring bars and ultimately, more weight distributed to the front axles.

Maybe I'm talking about a different type of system geometry than the OP. If so, my info doesn't apply.

What, someone actually weighed their rig. In a previous post your trailer loaded weight was 7200 so yes I'd go one more link.

Generally the more links under tension, the more weight transferred. It would be best to know what the weights unhitched are to know how much weight is being added to the rear axle and reduced from the front once it is hitched. This will give you a better idea if your hitch is set right and is transferring enough weight. Some manufacturers suggest returning the front axle back to the unhitched weight while others (like Ford) suggest returning 50% of it.
