How does weight look?
I'm at 17% tongue weight, which is a little high, but the weights below is with a very lightly adjusted Andersen WDH. What do you folks think? Do these numbers look good to you?

Losing 20# on the front axle will not affect your steering. I believe that in the newer gen trucks, ford allows/recommends that you do not try to return the front to it original height but bring it back to only within 1/2 inch

I'll look that up thanks. I do think I need to add more weight distribution as well. Perhaps I'll give the 1/2 inch method a try.
