Re: please help with wd hitch
Ivylog wrote: Looks like a PU to me so you do not need to come back to level. The back axle needs most of the weight of the trailer added to it, not the front axle. At this point I'd weigh the rig to see your axle weights and if the teeter tottering is gone. it was very hard to set chains, even when i raised trailer with jack.. is this normal? they have a ton of force on them. thanks385Views0likes0CommentsRe: please help with wd hitch

The hitch arms should be parallel to the tongue. There should be a way to adjust the angle at which the arms enter the hitch, which is how you adjust the weight distribution, along with adjusting the chain length. thanks for all that info,, there is where im at now. i had 6 washers. now added 9(as seen in pics) the bars on the 7th chain link. and also are very tight. tightened bolt to tighten washers up against shank also. this brought rear of truck up 1 inch only. front didnt change much. i am wondering if i need the next step up curt wd hitch? thanks again for any help.385Views0likes0Commentsplease help with wd hitch
