When I changed trucks to a 2014 Ram 2500 the 5r was 4.5" nose high, chucking drove me nuts. Pin box did not have any adjustment and the hitch was all the way down.
Bought a kit from Dexter for the torsion axels that raised the unit at the axels 2-5/8", that brought the RV very close to level. It's 1/4" to 1/2" nose high now, a little more pin weight and it would be dead level. Bed rail clearance is 5.5". Chucking almost gone except for the expansion joints on bridges and some of those concrete interstates.
PhoneDude -- where did you get your kit?
And, did you do the work yourself? Was it pretty straight forward?
I assume the kit comes with longer u-bolts and everything needed?
I'm sitting about two inches high...and only have about 2-inches of bed rail clearance.
2" bed clearance!? How do you even tow down the road without rubbing? :h If true, you =really= need to raise the FW; likely the only way to get that kind of lift is will a full-on subframe. 4" =minimum= to be sure.
