    Yes, What do you want to know? I use to tow with mine before we got our Freightliner.

    I just want to make sure its possible.. I got a f250 with a 6" lift and 37" tires on it.. Im thinking of trading in my RV and getting a 5th wheel to park somewhere..
    Do you have to lift the trailer to compensate for the truck?

    I had them flip the axles on the trailer and that gave me just enough lift to compnesate. It gets really hairy towing in the wind though. I was towing a 40foot Alfa Toyhouse. I have a 6" and 35's on my truck.

    I tow a 28' fifth wheel with my F-250 CC LB which has a 4' lift and 35's. We flipped the axle which made it perfect and it still has 14' tires

    What do you mean by "flip the axles"? I was trying to figure that one out.

    Instead of having the axles mounted on top of the springs they mount them underneath in order to lift the trailer a few inches.
