Raising 5'er for Ram 2500

Thanks again to all for the suggestions. The pin box on my 5'er is already in the top holes, and the hitch is in the lowest setting. Sorry, I should have mentioned that before. So as you all can see now I'm at my maximum clearances without some sort of modifications on the 5'er. Reason everything is like it is now is because my F-250 now was higher than my 05 F-250. But it pulls level or ever so slightly nose high. I'm going to be checking this week on the frame mods and pricing. And I'm not gonna pass on the truck unless it's just not practical to do vs. the savings on the truck. But I gotta be honest. I've been a Ford guy for years, but man I love this Ram. The ride, power, interior, looks etc. are fantastic. I simply cannot get over the power and level of refinement this Cummins has. And I can't imagine how well it must pull. But all the emissions stuff does scare/intimidate me a little. But from what I hear and read, it seems they have a much better handle on these issues vs just a few years ago. Plus it's a 2015 with only 8k miles, so plenty of warranty left.
My head is spinning! Lol!
Thanks everyone

I can assure you that you would love that Ram. I was a die hard Ford guy (had 3 of them over the course of 20 years) but got tired of all of the issues related to their diesels. We bought the truck in our signature 1 1/2 years ago and absolutely love it. We pulled a 12,000 lb fifth wheel with our 2003 F-350 with the 6.0L diesel and have upgraded to a 16,000 lb fifth wheel this year and the Ram pulls it much better than the Ford pulled the lighter trailer while getting slightly better fuel mileage. And the exhaust brake is fantastic; we pulled Stevens Pass in Washington a couple of weeks ago both ways and I had 1 brake application on each side. I actually had to give the truck throttle a few times because the exhaust brake was slowing us too much!

Hopefully you can make it work out with your trailer because you would not regret buying that truck!
