Hello all

Due to mechanical issues I have gone from 2019 gmc 2500 standard bed to 2025 gmc 2500 standard bed. Pulling 2018 Jayco ht 28.5 rsts. I have a pullrite 2900 on super rails and morryde pin box. The pin box has no adjustment. New truck looks higher than old one. To stay level considering standard universal rails but have concern about pin box hitting tail gate or side of bed in turns. Installer will not advise. Camper stranded out of state. New truck does not have oem pucks. Any one else have newer trucks with pullrite hitch? Any thoughts appreciated as one shot to drill bed! Photos below of old set up.

If the distance from your truck bed side to the underside of your camper is 6-7 inches you should be okay.
I use super rails that attach to the OEM pucks.

I don’t have access to camper. It is stranded in PA. New truck didnt have oem pucks as my 2 previous. Don’t want to go higher than already am. The new 2025 Denali duramax looks higher.

My concern is the king pin box clearing sides and tailgate. If I go with standard rails it may be issue. Just heard that towing too nose high is not good for tire and axel of camper
