How To Adjust The Height on a Fastway E2 Weight Distribution Hitch
Question:
I just installed a Roadmaster active suspension on my Ford F-150 and it lifted by back end up about an inch. Do I need to adjust my WDH and how is that done if so? I have the e2 trunnions 10K/1000lb tongue. It was originally setup at dealer

Even though a 1" lift probably isn't going to considerably change your setup, if your trailer was level/close to level before adding a RoadActive RAS system like the # RAS3611-Y , you'll need to make some adjustments. If your trailer is level, you won't need to make any adjustments.
The Fastway e2 weight distribution hitch has an adjustable shank, so in order to make adjustments you'll just need to unbolt the head and move it up or down until the trailer is level.
I've attached a helpful article that explains how to level out your trailer for towing that talks about how to setup and adjust a weight distribution hitch that you may want to refer to while you're going through this process.
