Can Spacer be Used on Blue Ox Weight Distribution Bracket so that it Sits Level
Published 11/03/2021 >
Question:
My blue ox trackpro L brackets tilt forward under use. They are mounted on an airstream tongue in the closest hole but there is a a gap that allows the bracket to cant forward under use. Is there any way to shim this? Any other solution I should try?

Thanks for the picture of your spring bar hanger installed on your frame so that I can see what you mean. Yeah a spacer or shim is going to be what you would need since your frame height is between setting so that you can't get a flush fit to allow it to sit level like you need it to. You might find a welder or fabricator to weld on a spacer to the top or bottom of the frame where the bracket attaches so that it's permanently there.
