Tow Vehicle Rear End Sag

We recently upgraded our tow vehicle, so now the hitch and ball sit much higher than the coupler on the tongue of the trailer (when its level). After hooking it up and putting all the trailer weight on the tow vehicle, and not the jack, the rear end sags. We have a weight distribution hitch, but that doesn't seem to help. What could cause this, and how do we fix it?
Thanks-
  • Also a WDH can only do so much. What’s the tow vehicle and payload, and what’s the trailer and it’s tongue weight??
  • A WDH is not a one size fits all item. It is adjusted to match your specific TT to your specific TV. When you change either, the hitch has to be readjusted for the new combination.
