risers on drv

is anyone pulling a drv 5th wheel with a 2017 f450 without risers on the morryde independent suspension ?
  • 2016 and earlier Ford's did NOT need the risers. The 17 350/450's for sure DO.

    Yes about $1,800 will get the job done. I had 3" risers added to get to level and my overall height now is 13' 5".

    They will RIP off the POS installed by DRV brake lines and re install to a VERY professional level.

  • will it hurt the back 2 axle on a 3 axle drv to pull it until the risers are put on. we want to buy a used houston and it probably would not have the 2 in risers. i have also heard there is about an inch of adjustment on the morryde independent suspension .
  • That's right, they will allow you to stay in your trailer while inside their shop having work done. MORryde has a beautiful lounge to hang out in with WIFI AND they'll buy ya lunch both days while your there.

    They also have hook ups for you to use if you decide to arrive the night before your appointment.

    We were there last July having the risers put on our Suites.

  • We're pulling a Mobile Suites 39DBRS3 with a 2017 RAM. It tows slightly nose high. Have an appointment with Mor-Ryde to have risers installed in August right after the SOITC rally.
