BAMA CAMPER How much clearance is there from the top of the tires to the top of the wheel well? There is only 2 3/4" on drivers side on my trailer and with 3" travel on the CRE 3000 I am seeing some problems. If you would tell me what your is I would appreciate it. Thanks from Pell City.

According to the CRE3000 documentation, 3" is the correct travel for the shackle.
What kind of problems? Hitting the top of your wheel well? Wouldn't that be a function of the springs (not the axles)? I looked but didn't see any scuff marks on my wheel well. If not the springs, you may have a broken shackle link. Look where the end of the springs mount to the CRE3000 and where it mounts to the other end on a frame support. I had a broken shackle link on a previous 5th wheel and it dropped a wheel all the way to rub a hole in the wheel well!
I assume you haven't got it loaded heavy - my trailer weight is 11,620, with 8,680 on the wheels and 2940 on the pin.
