Solution for 2019 Grand Design Reflection 28BH Sitting 6 Lower Than 2017 Super Duty
Updated 04/08/2020 | Published 04/06/2020 >
Question:
i have a 2019 reflection 28bh grand design fifth wheel. the tow vehicle is a 2017 f 350 super duty 4x4, the problem is i am 6 inches high in the front of the 5er, the hitch is at its lowest setting in the bed and the pin box is at its lowest setting. i thank the easiest solution would be to add a 3 inch lift kit on the 5th wheel correct ? also do you see a problem with being 3 inches high after the the kit was installed?? what do you recommend as far as lift kits for this particular 5th wheel?

Thank you for the information and photos!
Normally we recommend using an over-under kit to move your axles from above your leaf springs to under them, but since your axles are already in this position you can either use the 2-1/4" Lift Kit # RR23QX or you'll have to replace your current hangers with tall ones to get your rig sitting any higher. You ultimately should be okay being out of level by 3" - 4" but anything more than that would cause issues.
I would just go with the lift kit simply because it's easier to install as there is no welding required.
