I wouldn't be pleased with what I see. So I have to ask again, when you put the hitch weight on the ball, how much does the tow vehicle squat? In other words, if you measure the height of the rear bumper above the ground at some convenient point near the center, then hitch up the loaded trailer, and measure the bumper height again at the same point, how much has the bumper dropped? If it is more than an inch or two, you need to do something about it.

At the same time you are measuring the rear bumper drop (squat), you might also measure the front bumper rise.
