Yes, this is normal. The Timbrens will engage first when you hook up the trailer and the weight distribution hitch will then work with the remaining sag. Just make sure you're not overloading your truck's tongue weight capacity and the weight distribution system is set up correctly. Any gear in your bed will add to the trailer's tongue weight.

Hey, how did things go once your Timbrens and weight distribution hitch were working together on the travel trailer? It’d be great to hear if the setup leveled out your truck the way you wanted. Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same question.
