5th. wheel--- Reverse the springs on the trailer axles.
Wow, I had no idea such a thing was even possible. I Googled a couple of articles and Youtube videos's, realized it was well beyond my capabilities, and figured it was also outside of my price range, especially considering the age of the 5th wheel. Then I made a phone call to a local hitch place that has worked on my brakes before, and installed the 5th wheel hitch from my old truck to my new one. They knew EXACTLY what I was talking about and suggested it would only cost between $250 and $350!! That should give me around 5", which is not enough, but a lot better. I will be taking it in to them in the next couple of days to let them have a look. Maybe they'll have some other ideas to give me a little more height.
Thanks everyone so much for all the great info.
