Troubleshooting Landing Gear Legs that Sit Too Close to the Ground
Question:
I just bought a Montana, 2015 model, and the front legs, when fully retracted, are only 2-3inch off the ground. I need air bags, the goose-neck lowered, and the tallest hitch I can find. I have a 1999 Ford F350 DRW ex-cab. Can yawl help me?

I wonder if the landing gear legs on your 2015 Montana have retracting inner tubes that if you were to retract them would give you additional clearance.
Does the trailer sit level when connected to your trailer? If so, then you would not want to raise the front of the trailer.
If you do end up needing to raise your 1999 Ford F350 the best way to do it would be with a lift kit. We don't sell those but you shouldn't have a problem finding one for you vehicle.
