It is able to adjust both height and angle, I am guessing I should add more angle.
Yes, the angle is adjustable. You'll need a whopper of a wrench to turn those big silver nuts, but if you did your own install (good for you!), you already have one.

As you can see from the pictures, if you tilt the ballmount back just a little bit, it will lower the springbar tips (before hooking up the chains). If you then use the same number of links as before, it will leave the spacing between the TM frame and the springbar tips unchanged, but at the same time a tighter adjustment (more weight distribution).
