I wonder if anyone has checked their tongue weight with and without their WDH (including shank) attached to the TM's tongue and can share that info. Most WDH's weigh 75-90lbs and that extra weight alone could require moving up a notch in spring bars by some people. We also have a RoadWing gravel/mud flap gizmo installed on our WDH shank that adds another 30lbs and some have bike racks mounted in the same area.

The best solution of course is to weigh all three axles while hitched (with the WDH installed) or even better all six tires like Ray and Bill have to make sure we are within manufacturer's individual axle/tire and overall weight allowances.
