If you hook up as APT suggests ( and many of us do) you will find that snapping the brackets up is quite easy. The trailer tongue jack does the lifting and makes snapping up much, much easier. You will easily be able to go up several links which will restore more weight ot your front axle.
I run 4 links under tension- my bars are parallel to the tailer frame when snapped up- and I cannot snap them up at all without using the tongue jack- and I am a fairly BIG gut also.
That's what I do but I can barely get it to snap. If that is ok then I am fine with that setup. I am just concerned I may be putting undue force on the hitch.
