Anyone have an 25K Air Safe Hitch with a new Superduty

I have a 2017 F450 with a Hensley T3 hitch. I have a Retrax roll top cover and so far have wiped out 2 rails on the retrax cover because I cannot seem to get the hitch high enough.
The back of the pin box hits the retrax rail when I make a sharp turn backing up. Just ordered a 4" spacer for the T3 and really hope that does the trick.

I had a 25K Air Safe Hitch with my old F350 and I think I should have stayed with Air Safe. The nice thing about Air Safe -- even though the head may sit up high while towing it comes off very easily after you unhook to us your roll top cover.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

As long as your coach gross is less than 21K, you can lower the pin. This will require going to 5 bolts on each side.
We had to do this with our Mobile Suites towed by our Chevy. Look for a sticker on the side of the hitch to allow the procedure.
Good luck.

Can not do. Over 21K

Posting a picture of the problem would help with responses. I have heard of similar issues, where the pin box mount needed to be trim in an upward slope to allow clearance to bed rails. You don't want to raise the hitch too high, and be towing way nose-high. If I understand the issue, I think trimming would be the answer.
