How much of rise on front of truck acceptable when hitched?
When hitched with the load bars, the front fender of my F150 rises a half inch verses unhitched. Is this acceptable?

I still don't understand the need to weigh the front end using a WDH vs just measuring. Most manufactures tell you to return the front of the vehicle to a % of the OEM ride height. If that has been achieved then why weigh it?
Because to the uninformed, yet cautious driver/RVer this is good information. And it actually is, for training/experience purposes. Not everyone can “visualize” a load with any sort of accuracy.
At one point in my life I had no idea how to tow a trailer or what the potential issues were. For those at that stage of towing knowledge it is good visual proof of how the static weight distribution of everything happens when a trailer is hooked up.
