I just sent them an email and will probably call them Monday as well. We will be pulling with a Ram 3500 srw and will feel a lot better with them. Thanks again, will keep you updated on the project.

So far so good, they responded to my email this morning and would like a picture of the "axle tag" on the trailer to obtain all the information they require to quote a price. Forwarded to the dealer requesting they take a photo and forward to me.

Dealer took picture and sent to us. Forwarded to them and i have a quote!! $2625 for the kit, $1000 for the installer They recommend upgrading to the 8K kit that has 9/16" studs. They call it peace of mind for an additional $64. All this is above my pay grade, but sign me up! Thank you so much for guiding us to these folks. Their installer will be in our area in October which is just fine.
