5er axle adjustments

Let me try to explain,

The front axle on my 2005 Rockwood 30' 5th wheel has adjustment bolts on the front of the axle mounts to the frame. I am guessing this is to raise and lower the axle for the height of the towing vehicle.

I bought my 5'er used but did not know what vehicle the previous owner pulled it with. My truck is a standard F250 Super Duty and the front of the trailer pulls down on the trailer, hitch is raised as high as allowed.

I am guessing most of the towing weight is on the front axle.

Anyone ever adjusted their front axle to even out the weight distribution onto both axles?

If you're towing nose-down, then you'd want to drop the spring attachments to raise the FW to level. I've never heard about someone =not= raising them equally, but I suppose it's been done at some time. The usual issue is clearance with the bed not being enough, requiring the whole FW to be raised. Now, if your truck is squatting a lot once hitched, then you may not have enough truck for the FW, causing the nose-down attitude. Pics would help a lot on this.
