Thank you everyone for your diagnosis and possible solutions to my problem.
Because I have successfully hooked up my two previous trailers at the same exact location that I'm hooking up this one, I don't think it has to do with the angle of the truck - trailer, pitch of the street, etc. which is causing me to hook up the bars on different links to achieve the same amount of pressure on the weight distributing bars.
Someone suggested that the bushings where the bars fit into the hitch head may be worn. I will check that next time I have access to my hitch and trailer (next weekend) and report back if I'm able to find a solution.
Thanks again everyone.
