2005 Forest River Wildcat Lift Kit Recommendation

Question

Question:

I have a 2005 27ft Wildcat. Would like to lift the 5th wheel 2 plus inches. I have adjusted the hitch pin maximum. I still measure 2 1/2 inches difference from the front to the rear of the 5th wheel frame. Trying to figure what kit I need to order to get maximum lift? Iam pulling a second trailer behind 5th wheel with polaris Razor on it. The second trailer has a lot of sway since I bought new 2022 gmc truck.
