Expert Reply:
Yes, if you install a RAS kit like # RAS4611 or any other suspension enhancement to a vehicle you will need to adjust the amount of spring bar tension in the weight distribution system. Basically what you will need to do is first set the amount of support you want from the RAS kit and then re-set up the weight distribution system. You will end up finding that you need less spring bar tension to level the tow vehicle.
