I was thinking of installing Lippert correct track suspension system on my 5R and when looking it over I saw the spring hanger brackets were bent. In my pics you can see the bolts were stressed. Still under warranty I said I would have them, the dealer, install the system but the problem had to be fixed. A couple of weeks went by and they couldn't get an answer from Keystone on what they would do. With 3000 mi. on the 5R the shop mngr. said they took it all apart and replaced the worn out bushings and straightened the brackets then installed the correct track sys. I picked up the 5R and will use it through the summer and a 2500 mi. trip in September and if the brackets bend, the dealer said they would back it even though it would be out of warranty. We'll see how it goes!
I instaled Correct Tract on my to lift the E, works well and I alinged the new 7K axles. I have CT to gain 2ins cause new truck bed are deeper.
This is what I did about 6 years ago, replaced hangers and new springs and made the cross brace.I bent mine I think by backing into right angle spaces.
