Hooked up to our 5th wheel yesterday and have 5.5" of clearance & the trailer is 1-1/2" nose high. If I raise my hitch I will be 2.5" off level. We typically stay in resort style campgrounds and stay on major highways. Dealer said I won't have any problems.
I did..... now don't. Under ideal conditions, you'll be fine. But, unexpected things happen. A wrong turn, requiring a turnaround in less than "ideal" conditions is but one of many things that can cause you problems. I'd either try to lower the truck or raise the unit! JMO. Good Luck with whatever you decide. memtb
Did you have contact between your truck and trailer or did you do this as a preventative measure?
