CanDo, there are two factors I consider important and hitch height affects them both. One is how level the coach rides and the other is how much room between bedrails and coach.
Our rig runs a bit nose high. Not a big deal so long as you don't shift too much weight to the trailer axles and go overweight on them. With the ways ours is set up I have about 7 1/2 to 8 inches of clearance between bedrails and coach. I've read the absolute minimum acceptable clearance is 5 inches. I'm not comfortable with anything less than 7 inches of clearance.
I also would not be comfortable with an extreme nose high or nose low situation. But I have had no problems with a slightly nose high attitude on our rig. To get it level I'd have less clearance than I'm comfortable with. I've not measured to see just how much higher the nose is than the rear of the Montana but would guess it's not more than a couple of inches, measured at the frame.
