Did you install correct track to raise your 5er?

I need to raise my trailer to fit my stock Ram 3500 DRW 4x4.

Looking to see how many of you have done it and how did your install go.

Haven’t done it yet but real close to doing that mod. Probably within the next month. Will be replacing bushings with never fail and pins with wet pins.

Curious why you would pair wet bolts(more maintenance) with never fail bushings(no maintenance). Do never fail bushings recommend using wet bolts?

I am asking as I put wet bolts on previous rig only to be warned on this forum to be timely on maintenance as the brass sleeves wear quickly if not maintained. I was shocked at the maintenance interval of those wet bolts.

Regardless, keep us posted on the mod.

I was looking at something like this myself. New F250 still sits too high even will both hitches adjusted. The little squat I get helps but I'd rather have some extra play room for adjustment. I'll keep an eye on this thread...

I had the Correct Track system installed on my fiver because I worried about a slide bracket that was close to one of my tires. The system raised the trailer about 2 inches providing more clearance over the bracket and leveling the trailer when connected to the truck. I had the Forever Bushings installed at the same time. Very pleased with the result.
