Question

Question:

I have a 2021 Starcraft Telluride 296bhs 5th wheel. I tow with a 2018 Ram 2500. Truck is stock but camper is still nose high when towing. Is there a lift kit that I can install to help this issue?

Yes we do have a lift kit that can raise the suspension of your 2021 Starcraft Telluride 296BHS which has a tandem axle leaf spring setup. You would just need the Correct Track Tandem lift kit part # RR23QX which can give you a lift of either 1-1/4 inch or 2-1/4 inch and would level your trailer.
