If you mean changing hitch geometry by raising/lowering torsion bar bracket height, or raising/lowering ball height, I think that might be worse for me. I’ve tried a couple different ball heights. If I’ve got 12% on the ball now and a level rig with bars on, I’m thinking I’ve got the safest tow I can get. Thanks for improving my knowledges base.

If your trailer is level and your truck's front axle is loaded the same with and without trailer, you've done all you can with the WDH. No problem, always very happy to help when I can.

So, what I think i’ve picked up is the 2022 axle height is not adjustable, and is the max height of the earlier models that were.
So, the hitch height (coupler height) for the 2022 should be the same as 2021 at factory height (tallest) and with the 15 tires.

I thought I had seen it as 22” but can’t find a source to confirm that.

If someone can provide a refrence, or an actual measurement, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks,

Ours came with it in the higher position, which does give it good ground clearance for areas where you don’t want your drain lines catching on anything. The downside however, is that it sits up higher meaning more vertical wind resistance when towing. So my question is, who else that owns this series of trailer uses the higher position and does anyone use the lower position. Our original purchase dealer is 3-1/2 hrs away, but our local dealer says they’d change the position of suspension and charge us two hours of labor
(about $220). Is it worth the change over or should I just leave it as delivered, any thoughts or am I overthinking things ?
I just purchased a 2020 Micro Minnie 2108DS. I noticed that the suspension brackets had additional holes. I got under it with my floor jack and impact wrench a about 2 hours later I was able to lower mine by 3". That doesn't seem like much but it made difference in the look.
