goodguys75 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Anyone here know what the minimum hight should be between your toyhauler 5th wheel and truck bed. Just for info i converted the 5th wheel into a goose neck. What im refering to is the hight between the truck bed and the overhang of the toyhauler. Im about 5 inches and seems a little close to the top of the bed rails, especially when i go down a steep dip...thanks for any info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingnut Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 A minimum of 8-10 inches is what I used to set mine up at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushjunkie Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 i havent taken a tape measure to it, but ive read that a good rule of thumb is having enough room to fit two fists between the bed rail and trailer. seems to be about 10 inches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
