I have a 2012 Ram 2500 4x4 with 17" wheels and a 275/75R tire. Came from the dealer that way.
But the trailer king pin box has always scraped on the bed rails when making a tight turn.
I've trimmed about 4"X 2" at the back/ bottom of the pin box that helped but if I slid the 5th wheel back the box still hits the tail gate.
Reading one reply warned about overall height and the 2012 3400RL is 13ft 3 in. setting level in my driveway unhooked. If I use the space idea I'd be 13'8" the 13'10" hooked up. No good...
Help??
You will be lifting the rear of the trailer, not the front where most rigs are the highest. We are 13' 4", and that is to the top of the front A/C, and lifting the rig at the axles would not change that dimension.
