Is there such a thing as too tight? If I go up to link 8 I'd only have about 2 chain links left, and my bars would be quite a bit higher than parallel I'm also thinking my ball height may have to be adjusted if I tighten the weight distribution.
Of course I'll shift some weight around inside the trailer as well, just want to make sure I'm getting the full use out of my hitch.
Really I'd love to pay an expert shop to precision adjust this for me as my tow vehicle and trailer will pretty much always have the same contents.

Too tight will cause the trailer to be very bouncy and push the TV around. Additionally there is always the fear of bending the frame by over tightening the WDH. I would imagine a place like hitch experts would be able to give you input.
How much of a difference is there between your front axle and your real axle weight & height.
