RV5 Extended King Pin

Does anyone have any experience with the RV5 Ten-Inch Extended King Pin from PopUp as advertised on page 74 of the March edition of the Good Sams Club Highways magazine?

All I can tell you, if you already have some kind of factory extension on your unit and you have a keystone product, it could void your warranty if you have a frame problem. the extra extension puts too much pressure on the pin box because it moves the weight transfer. RV5 will only recommend them for a unit that has a straight pin style.

Thanks Joe, I suspected it would change the hitch leverage on the pin box. My 2008 3400RL is using a Mor/Ryde pin box system from the factory. I was just trying to get a little more space between my cab on my 2008 Ford F250 SD SB and the RV. I have a Reese Slider Hitch that I can use when I really need it.
