Are the trailers hitch adjustable for truck heights?

Most hitches and pin boxes are adjustable. The issue is to maintain proper bed rail clearance while leveling the ride of the trailer.

If your truck has a tall stance, chances are you will have to lift the 5th wheel in order to get the proper bed rail clearance and keep everything level.

The hitch is adjustable over a limited range.

Don't forget your truck will squat a couple of inches when the FW is hooked to the truck.

Be sure to get the trailer level.

My Truck is not lifter but does have a tall stance.

& wonder about the height of the truck its 5th wheel adjustability vs the trailers adjustability to keep it all level as you drive down the road?

Blanco1, I tow with the same generation of Dodge/Ram 4X4 as you do. Mine is a 2500 with Tow and Camper Packages, so stock sits a bit high in the rear. You don't state what size 5er your are looking at mine is a 32' Keystone Copper Canyon we run about a 2,400# to 2,600# pin, so we get about 1.5" to 2" squat/leveling with the 5er attached. I have currently about 6.5" of 5er to bed rail clearance, and the 5er is level. We did install a Correct Track system on the 5er to get the final 2" of 5er lift to level the package.

Shorter 5er's typicality sit a bit lower at the pin. My Ram unloaded sits about 58" at the Tailgate.
