Toad higher or lower than RV and 5K or 10K capicty riser?

My Jeep toad is 5" higher than the new RV. The 5K riser is either 4" or 6" and the 10K is either a 3" or 7". I called Blue Ox and tech support said that they didn't care if the toad was an inch or two...

I feel the +/- 3" rule is a good benchmark. Keep in mind once you leave the level spot where you do the original setup measurements you will seldom be level again. Pull up next to a MH pulling a dinghy while it is going down the road and see how much movement up and down there is. On CA's maintained roads I have seen a 12" difference between the dinghy bumper and the MH receiver hitch.
