The disc brake Sankey is lower than the drum braked version, so a disc braked one will sit level (or just about). Mine sits virtually level and the hitch is about an inch below the open tailgate.Disco 5 HSE Lux

I'd have thought you'd be OK with that as there's not really that much weight on them. Perhaps up them to 36 but not much difference. If it seems to be bouncing around too much, up them a touch more.
Really looking forward to seeing it in the flesh at the weekend Bodsys Brake Bible

There's an article about converting a Sankey in LROI this month if you're interested.
Might tell you how you should have done it.
Or maybe that should be the other way around? Lloyd "Phat Face"
