2014 21BHS trailer tongue height and hitch ball

Pete:

You should shoot for a level trailer, but also for a level tow vehicle. From your picture the out of level problem seems to be with both. If you installed a weight distribution hitch then you could level out your tow vehicle which should bring your trailer into level as well.

But I will also bet you are overloading your tow vehicle as well. You have fuel, at least two people, sports gear a camper top, etc plus as much as 650 lbs of hitch weight on that truck. Others have reported a measured hitch weight of 525 to 625 lbs with that trailer. I will bet that much payload puts you over your GVWR.

So maybe the first thing to do is put some of that stuff in your truck in the back of the trailer. And weigh the hitch. You only need about 450 lbs on the hitch for the reported 4,500 lb loaded weight of the trailer. Maybe you can stay within the load limits of your truck and balance out your rig with no WDH if you move stuff around.

I haven't had a chance to hook up the truck and trailer to tow it to a level parking lot so that I can take some measurements to check the hitch height. With my short driveway and sloped section makes for some inaccurate measurements. I'm a bit concerned about installing a WDH as the LL dealer did not recommend using one when I purchased the camper.
