I have recently ordered a Landmark Augusta 5th Wheel. I also own a F4500 TV.
When looking at 5th wheel hitches to put in the back on my truck to support this I wanted to go to a 20K rated unit. However I have discovered that they come in different height adjustments. Can someone recommend a 5th wheel hitch for my set up or tell me how I should measure to determine the one I need. I see they only adjust about 4 inches so I don't want to get a low profile one if it wont be high enough for the unit when it comes in. Since I haven't received the 5th wheeler yet I am not sure how high up it sits and even if I did have it not sure the proper way to measure it.
I am a total greenhorn when it comes to 5th wheelers and towing them in general. I purchased a F450 because I figured it could handle any trailer I had decided to get. I hope to go Full timing before the end of summer. I just want to make sure I have everything I need before the trailer arrives.
Thanks
