Is the 2018 RAM 2500 Rail Heiight Too High for Reflections 26RL?
We just bought a new RAM 2500 Diesel with the expectation of purchasing and hauling ar 30' fifth wheel...only to discover after the purchase ...that the rails may be too high to tow a fifth wheel level? Anyone towing with a similar truck or experienced a similar issue? Problems? Resolutions?
Thanks so much!

A few of us have lifted our trailers using blocks and suspension components from trailerblocks.com. The installation was not very difficult.

It was my 2014 337RLS FW. I did the work myself. Paul (Poppy'sfifthwheel) did his also. It was about a three hour job. The instructions that came with the kit were pretty good. If you go that route, I'd suggest you purchase the kit that includes the new U-bolts, nuts and washers.

HI, We have the 26RL and a Super Glide hitch. We tow with a 2014 2000 diesel, my truck was raised at the factory so it must be a common height.
The dealer adjusted the hitch to the fifth wheel when we picked it up. I wonder if the height of the bed was heighted at the factory. I also have aluminum tonneau cover that slides into a drum.
