Suspension Lift Systems For a 2018 Forest River Artic Wolf 265DBH8 5TH Wheel Camper
Question:
Good Evening, I have 2018 Cherokee Arctic Wolf 265DBH8 that I pull with a 2019 Ford F250 XLT 4X4. The 5th wheel rides high in the front due to the height of the truck, which caused the back bottom carriage to bottom out. Is there a product to lift the 5th wheel axles about 3 to 4 inches? The F250 is manufacture height. Thank you

Expert Reply:
First I recommend checking the clearance between your 5th wheel underbelly and the bed sides/tailgate on your 2019 Ford F-250 XLT 4X4. You want to see 5-6" between the 5th wheel overhang and your bedsides, if you have more than that you may be able to lower your 5th wheel hitch or pin box to help bring the rear of your 2018 Forest River Artic Wolf 265DBH8.
For raising your suspension we have the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit # RR23QX that is capable of raising the suspension up to 2-1/4". This will also allow you to align the axles if they are out of alignment.
We also have the Lippert Center Point by Trailair Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade # LC1565391. This will raise your suspension 2" and also allow for a better ride in the camper. It will reduce cucking felt inside your truck as well as absorb road shock on the 5th wheel.
Since your axles are already under your leaf springs we do not have any other items that will raise the suspension the full 3-4" that you are looking for.
