Thanks John--
I started another post on my NEW hitch set up. Thought I would get more responses seeing as this thread was already several weeks old and most people tend to view/respond to threads that are near the top of the list. Thank you for sticking with this thread!!
NOTE: I have been using my electric tongue jack to raise/lower the trailer and swing bars onto L brackets. I a y have to add 1-2 additional wood blocks under jack foot to raise it high enough to install bars on L brackets....as it's close to toping out now

Drove it approx. 25 miles to CAT scale. Drove great!
Here are NEW weights:
Weight #1 (Truck and trailer WITH WD engaged):
Front axle: 3400#
Rear axle: 4680#
Trailer axle: 8140#
Total: 16220#
Weight #2 (Truck and trailer WD NOT engaged):
Front axle: 3220#
Rear axle: 4980#
Trailer axle: 8040
Total: 16240#
Weight #3 (truck only with new camper shell and 40# in bed):
Front axle: 3700#
Rear axle: 3280#
Total: 6980#
So.....is this better than where I was the first weigh in and previous hitch?
Are further fine tuning adjustments needed? If so, what exactly?

With the trailer parallel to the ground, measure from the ground to the top of the trailer coupler. The hitch ball should initially be placed as close to this height as possible. See Figure 1.
