New 2019 Rockwood 2511s

We are to pick up a 2019 2511s in a week, I want to do a pre-setup for my "Equal-i-zer" weight-distribution-sway-control hitch.

What is the level height of the tongue?

I have read that it is somewhere around 21" - 22", is this correct?

you need to get manual, all setups are different, if your wrong it could be bad haul

At level, w/o my Equalizer hitch installed, my 2511S is 21-1/2" to the top of the ball hitch.

I've got 23 1/2 to bottom of the coupler flange. Not sure how much pre setup you can do with that info.

Just want to set the ball height prior to picking up trailer, I am going to pull it home without weight distribution/sway control, and then do a full setup.

My dealer did the setup.

I bought my equalizer hitch elsewhere and took it to the dealer and they installed it for me - no charge. It is setup correctly too.

won't hurt asking.
