Do Adjustments Need to be Made With Weight Distribution on 2019 Ram 1500 w/ Timbrens

Published 04/04/2024

Question:

I have a 2019 Ram 1500 and recently purchased a new travel trailer with a Curt weight distribution hitch that was installed by the rv dealer. When hooked up and the weight distribution hitch in place. There rear of the truck sags about 3 inches. Looking to install a set of timbrens to help with the sag. Once installed, what type of adjustments to you recommend for the distribution hitch? Would I simply need to adjust the ball height on the shank until the trailer is in a level position when hitched?

Hi Jeremy; that's a good question and you'll actually need to go ahead and re-do the set up of your weight distribution system after adding the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR1500DS to your 2019 Ram 1500.

So it wouldn't just be making adjustments because your truck will be more level with the Timbrens. It will be worth it though since adding Timbrens will help ensure you are level to improve your Ram's handling.
