TV and HT Poll

[BLTravels]

I hope I phrase this properly. I know there are a lot of inherent issues with the newer trucks and HT line not being able to get them level without minor to major modifications to either the TV, trailer or both. Lots of info on that in the forums.
I see HTs going down the highway, usually in the opposite direction that look really level but can't really see what the TV is.
My poll is; For those of you with an HT Fiver, running pretty close to level, and did no to minor modifications:
What year, make and model tow vehicle are you using? Might as well include what your trailer is as well.
Thanks

I have a 2021 Chevrolet 2500 and a 2021 Jayco by 29.5bhds. The fifth wheel has 16 inch tire upgrade and I have a b&w companion hitch. Everything runs level with no issues.

Might be beneficial to state whether 2 or 4wd as well.

My 2017 HT 29.5 BHS was over 8 inches nose high when behind my truck... I consider the lift I installed on the trailer to be a MAJOR MOD as most would never do it. After towing it leveled, would I do it again? Yes, in a heartbeat.

4wd diesel

I had a 2015 F250 gas with my 2017 HT 27.5 RLTS and it paired perfectly and ran level.

I bought a 2018 F350 diesel (I wanted it for taking the camper though the mountains one day).

When I hooked it up the very first time I only had 3 inches of clearance at the tailgate. I had the axles flipped on the trailer to gain 2", so now I have almost 5" at the tailgate.

I have to also note that my F350 came (used) with tires that were not factory (325/60/20). The tires are 5 yrs old, so I am going back to factory (275/65/20) next month when I buy new tires, and that should help out and then I should have no issues, as these 275s should drop the truck down about 2".

2021 F350 7.3L 4X4 short bed. Std factory Conti tires. B&W companion hitch. 2021 Jayco HT 28.5. Nice and level. Plenty of room between trailer and truck bed rails too.

For those of you running the b&w companion- how high are you running the pivot arms? low medium or high setting? I put mine on the highest setting (2018 ram 2500) and Im about 8.5" above bed side. Thinking about going to medium setting.

[Nickoli407]

I am at the medium setting and got about 6 1/2 inch Clarence between the rails.
