r-pod Axle Riser

I had to clip one zip tie on each side to allow the brake wires to lengthen some.  No need to actually extend the wires.  NOTE, I found my brake wires on one side had gotten between the axle and frame and at some point I hit something that took up all of the suspension travel, which pinched the wires completely in half.  I made sure the wires took a slightly different route when I was done adding the risers.

In the Riser pdf. instructions, FR mentions "adding splices if necessary" to the electric brake lines, but nobody on the form has ever mentioned having to "add splices if necessary" to the brake lines !!!!

i just got the axel risers from Brandon, she wanted the last 4 of the VIN to get me the correct risers. I am handy with tools, will try to install them when i have the rpod on my property in march, i will take some pictures to post them and if i screw up something. I dont have a impact wrench, so i am not sure how long before i can break the factory bolt...i am assuming loctite should go back on the bolt when putting it back together?

You need to have the tools to break loose the factory bolt.  Either an extension for your heavy duty socket wrench or a pneumatic impact wrench (which I used).  I also made sure that I had a hydraulic jack and a couple of jack stands to safely hold the Pod up.  I am not a mechanic...but it only took me about 1/2 hour to install the risers and then a few minutes to put the wheels back on.
Having sturdy enough tools makes all the difference in the world.

Bill,the risers come from Forest River w/diagrams and install info that would make the install pretty straigt forward for anyone that feels comfortable with most shade tree wrenching jobs. If you farm it out, then figure 3/4 to 1 1/2 hours of shop time. I know, but for shoulder surgery, I would have done ours, and I'm no mechanic.Incidently, the dealer we purchased our Pod from beat your dealer. They would have done the job for $400.
