Fifth Wheel Hitch Height - Sliders
I'm running a Ram 3500 SRW 4X4 short bed with a Curt 20K manual slider. I also recently installed a Lippert (long) Flex Air Pin Box. I'm running into two issues. First which is the obvious, the coach is on a decent slope to the rear when hitched up. The second relates to the max height of the front hydraulic jacks....I am basically taking them to their height limit and sometimes need to block them up in order to raise up enough to disconnect the coach from the hitch...
The Curt slider is pretty tall (adjusted as low as it can go), roughly 20-21" above the truck bed. I've been looking at two other alternatives which will work with the Ram factory puck system. One unit is the Pullrite Superglide #2315. The other the B&W RVK3670. The first is an automatic slider, the second is manual. Both claim a seat height of 17" which would give me 3-4" additional adjustment.
Wondering if anyone out here has had experience with either?? If so I would appreciate a real world measurement, truck bed to seat as well as any comments pro or con.
Thanks!!
