headlights with cargo

I think when i have cargo in the back it causes the front end to bounce up a little. It looks like the headlights are on high beams sometimes. Anyone else notice this?

Never had this happen, but curious in what kind of cargo you're carrying to assume it's heavy enough to make the front end bounce.

Less than 200 pounds. A couple of computers, speakers, and wire bags.

I've got the goldline springs on and they lower a little more in the back than the front to level out the stance. I think I need to adjust the headlights now 'cause I get people flashing their brights at me alot

Less than 200lbs? That's interesting. I wouldn't imagine it would cause to front to lift at any time. Once I hauled several pieces of plywood and an old solid cherry oak 1932 Record Player/Cabinet. All that cargo had to way well over 300 lbs, and I felt no lift in the front. Then again, I did have to drop my back seats to fit everything. So the weight was pretty much evenly distributed.
