Axle Weights

Question

New to fifth wheels and I would like to balance my axle weights a little better. The fiver is slightly nose high. Will raising the trailer 2 5/8 to 3 inches (kits from Dexter for Torflex axle) make much of a difference?

Adjust the hitch down or pin box up and re weigh your rig.  Do tou have adjustment holes in your spring hangers?

I don't have much room between bed rail top and trailer, so don't want to lower hitch. Axles are Torflex, so no springs or adjustments.
