Hey Kevin, we have the Correct Track Lift Kit part # RR23QX which is a 1-1/4 inch lift that is compatible with the Dexter EZ Flex equalizers. Would that be enough of a lift?

The hitch height on my Ram is 56 3/4” and my level pin box is about 46”, I think I’d need as much safe lift height as possible. All adjustments on the trailer and the 5th wheel hitch are maxed out to get it level.

@KevinP Is the truck lifted? If you need to get 10 inches of height out of the trailer we unfortunately can't help with that.

@JamesonC No actual lift, just a dually with a front level on 35’s and a flatbed using a Demco Recon hitch. Very common setup, just trying to get as level as possible.

@KevinP Ahhh you have a flat bed. That makes a bit more sense. With that said I don't think there's anything that can overcome as big of a height difference as what you have. You'd need 10 inches to get to level and that's just a lot to try and get from a lift and potential tire size changes. Do you have the Recon that is designed for flatbeds that's a bit shorter?
