Laura, I think you're fine as hitched with the 6 link showing... but, let you be the judge. I'm not sure if you notice any difference, but I felt my van's steering just a TAD (small bit here) more secure with slightly more weight on it... I do believe you're right at the sweet spot. I think I'm just within the 10% difference rule (if I remember the posts I've read here) of front / rear weight differences. You are as well.

I'm glad you got it all hitched up. Happy motoring (and I still feel bad about those beauty rings for your baby.)

I'm also curious about your brake controller... are you having issues? I know my drums are a bit grabby until they heat up. I usually just "drag" the brakes a bit when I first p/u the trailer by using my manual brake controller to heat them up.
Take care!
Marc
