I called RF yesterday to order a kit.  Telephone 1-574-642-3119 est 209.  I left a message, but they have not returned my call yet.  If you are not planning to install them yourself, it might be better to order through your dealer.

You'd get the cheaper straight from Forest River.  Just have your VIN number ready and they'll get you the right ones for your Pod.

But yes unless you plan to do the install yourself I'd talk to my dealer about their pricing.

We took the pod on it's maiden trip (for us after 2 1/2 months) this week and you know the tube under the front of the trailer,  well I manage to take the new caps I got for it off before we got out of Walmarts parking lot. Hence risers order going in Monday . Other wise a great 3 days camping

Forest River finally returned my phone call this morning.  The price for a riser kit for my 173 is now $150, which is more than I expected.  I ordered one anyhow

That is almost what I paid in spring to buy them and have them installed.
