Sharp looking rig! Love the truck!

I might suggest lowering the hitch in the truck a notch or two if you can or raising the pin box... Looks like the trailer tilts backwards a tad. Or maybe just how the picture shows it!

Enjoy!

Thanks guys ! Yes I'd like to drop it a bit to but not sure what's a safe distance between box and bottom of trailer I already was close to touching it when I was parking it at the Koa.

I believe 6"-8" is about standard between the bed rail and the bottom portion of the 5er. It does get close at extreme angles.

Seeing as 99% of the time when you are hooked to it you will be on fairly smooth ground I highly recommend leveling it out. Leveling it will help ease towing as well as highly improve your braking. When you have the front of the trailer nose high like that and you hit the brakes it is actually going to try and lift the rear end of the truck as the trailer pushes on the hitch. If level it will push parallel with the frame and apply even amounts of pressure across all 4 tires of the TV.

Just have to reiterate that is a NICE looking rig!

Yes I agree but I think it's about 6" already.

What is it at the front of the camper and bed rails? Is the bottom side of the camper parallel with the bed rail?
