Thanks again, this forum is really helpful
You will probably be unable to adjust the hitch ball height on the road, because most hitch manufacturers want at least 300 ft-lbs of torque applied to those hitch shank bolts. (my own '1000 lb maximum' model, for a trailer up to about 9000 lbs, demanded 320 ft-lbs.)

When I bought my own TM and needed top adjust my shank bolt positions, I needed to use a pair of open-ended wrenches, each set into a long segments of iron pipe, in order to create enough torque at the bolt and nut.
