How to lower Dodge 2500 rear end

If anyone can help me find a U bolt plate for lowering the rear end for my 5th wheel trailer. the current u bolt plate is about 6 inches high, does anyone know where to get a lower one.

Thanks

BDF

Welcome to DTR. Go to the "User CP" link and fill in your signature so we know what you have besides "Dodge 2500".

Someone here put a great photo "How to..." together for removing the spacer on top of the spring pack on 3rd Gen 25/3500s. Pretty good, lowers about 1 1/2" or 2. Do a search, you should be able to find it.

Have you already raised your hitch in the bed or lowered the pin on the 5th? Another option is to flip your axle on the 5th if it hasn't already been done.

wait lowering the truck will raise the back end of your 5th wheel, my Dodge 2500 was to high, i flipped the axles on my 5th wheel, and then had to lower my hitch in my bed. worked out good enough.
