Comfort ride Hitch

I have a Comfort Ride 245 hitch in my truck and love it. I can give you a better review on pulling with the Mor/Ryde IS and pinbox after tomorrow. We pick up our new MS in the morning and leave Tuesday on a trip with it. Our current unit has a Mor/Ryde pinbox and it works great with it. I think with the Comfort Ride hitch and the Mor/Ryde IS and pinbox the ride is going to be very smooth. Let you know later in the week.

thanks Hunter11. will also be interested in how your truck pulls your MS. I'm considering the Chevy HD.. Had one years ago and really liked the Duramax diesel.

my MS currently has a standard pin box and suspension. so I'll need to add the MorRyde IS. they I'll either go with the MorRyde Pin box or the Comfort Ride Hitch.

Just purchased a 2014 Mobile Suites Estates 39RESB3 5th wheel. Will be going full time work camping in 18 months. Now looking for truck and hitch. Saw an ad in Escapees Magazine for the Comfort Ride Hitch. Looks interesting, but expensive. anyone have any experience with this hitch? How doe it compare to the MorRyde pin box and IS suspension combo? thanks for your input.

If you buy a 25K airsafe hitch, you don't need the MorRyde pin box. I bought the 25K airsafe hitch in 2006 when I bought my Carriage new. And you don't even know the 5th wheel is behind you going down the road. I have a 2001 F250 long bed truck. They don't give a air hitch away. But it is worth the money. If you like a smooth ride. The 5th wheel and the truck are not in a bind going down the road.

thanks handsome51. that's what I'm thinking. one or the other, but not both.

Trailer Saver is another option. I believe the BD-3 is the right model.
Comfort Ride is designed by the same gy as the original Trailersaver before Hensley bought them. Dave moved on and started the Comfort Ride. Either hitch is worth the price.

jims1, Looks like I would need the model TSLB2H hitch. I did look at this earlier. not sure the price. one disadvantage on this hitch is it's a bolt down design, and heavy to remove from the truck bed when I'm not towing. still worthy of consideration. thanks for your input.

2016 DRV 39TKSB3 here weighing in at 23K, towing within ratings with a 2015 RAM Cummins, Aisin, 4.10's and factory rear air ride suspension. Hitch is B&W RVK3600, kingpin TrailAire air bag. It does allow for some up and down movement separate from the truck but I think the MorRide king pin would ride just as well with the heavy load and factory rear air ride on the truck.

VERY solid controlled comfortable ride!

How do you like that Dodge truck? I don't have my truck yet and have been looking to see what I need to pull this heavy 5er. Yeas ago I had the Chevy Duranax/Alison that I really liked. But the dodge has a much higher weight capability. Have heard a lot of bad things about the dodge products though. Like to get more opinions from real users

Thanks

OK, here's an opinion from a real user. I've been towing 5th wheels with Ram duallies for 20 years. 15 of those years have been with Cummins-powered Rams - the only exception was a 1996 Ram 3500 dually with an 8.0L V-10 gasser. None have ever left me on the side of the road, and all have given excellent service with minimal problems. Here's our current rig:

Good looking rig. Thanks for the input. Starting to lean more towards the Dodge.
