Here is my ball height. I'm thinking I need the ball to go up one inch as well?
The trailer coupler is at let's say 29"
The ball is at 26"
But this is distorted slightly because my trailer WHEELS sit on a concrete pad that is about 2" thick. But the truck AND coupler are sitting on grass. So I would suspect if the coupler was sitting on concrete the measurement would be about 27" since the to tongue jack has to go two inches farther down to compensate for lack of concrete at the tongue.
Ball height
I'm out of vertical adjustment on my shank though. Do I need a new shank with more vertical adjustment or could I "wing it" with a 1" rise ball?
