What are the numbers for sag front and rear? Front should not sag at all. It should be higher or equal with or without the WD hitch.
Front: In the manual's example front is 28" empty, 30" without WD and anything between 28-29" with WD is OK. Front still going up but not as much as without. This is how you know how much weight is transferred.
Rear: 29" unloaded, 26" loaded and 28" loaded with WD. This number should be more than without WD but still less than unloaded. Rear end still sags; not as much.
I didn't take accurate measurement yet, but visually the front end is about the same (no sag at all), but rear is 50% lower than unloaded.
When completely unloaded the Caravan front and rear are perfectly levelled BTW.
