Lifted trucks don't always handle the best when towing a trailer. A lot of times the lift components weren't intended for any towing either so you'd want to check with the manufacturer of the lift as well. The two reasons rear suspension will sag with a WD system installed is that it's either not set up properly or the system is not rated high enough.
Can you verify the tongue weight of your trailer and the tongue weight range of your Husky Centerline Weight Distribution system?
