The purpose of the 5 link minimum specified by Reese is to avoid interference between the bars and the trailer tongue, not to adjust tension. You can use the chain to adjust tension if there are an appropriate number of links available, but that's not the intent. It's better to adjust WD by tilting the hitch ball.
