Hitch receiver flexing with weight distribution hitch

Does anyone else’s hitch receiver flex upward with weight distribution hitch? I tow a 7400lbs travel trailer (loaded weight) with my Silverado. The hitch bolts are all tight and there is no frame rust or weak spots. When I connect, my hitch flexes upward about an 1/8” putting my receiver very close to my rear bumper. First picture is with trailer connected, the second picture is with it disconnected (standard height).
