I just got a '06 Quad SB and have had our Reese/EasyRider airhitch mounted. I did a test hook up last night and with the Reese head mounted as low as possible the Terry fifth wheel is still riding nose up and the clearence between the bed and trailer is between 5-6 inches.

What can I adjust so fifth wheel is riding level without cramping the distance between bed and trailer?

If I lower the hitch head by letting some air out of airbags, the bed/trailer distance will be too small. The legs of the hitch are supported by four firestone airbags and the standard 16K Reese head fits on top with four mount positions.

Thanks for suggestions.

If not already done, you can relocate the axles below the springs. Assuming you have Dexter axles, you'll need one of these kits:

I believe I have Dexter axles - aren't they ones with the remote hub greasing setup? Is this something for DIY? The trailer weighs in at about 9K and I have 3.5K floor jack. How much does this typically raise the trailer? From my bubble level on the trailer I'm off between 2-3 inches. Thanks for link and help.
