I just brought my 26ft RLS (7900 lb gross)Okanagan bumper pull home from storage with my new to me 2011 F350 SRW 4x4 CC long box. I checked the hitched and unhitched height of the wheel well as per Ford manual. The front only went up 3/4 of an inch with the trailer hookded up. The back only went down 1 1/2 inches.
Can't see much point in trying to redistribute that weight???
I have the same issue with my F250 with the camper package. Only pulling 5500 GTW. But I like the sway control of my hitch, and when pulling with a full water tank and more junk in the bed of the truck, it helps.
Also check it again when your loaded and ready to go camping. Your tongue weight will increase for sure.
