Lou,
My axle risers are being shipped out today. Brandie at Forest River was very helpful. The first time I emailed them I had a reply within two hours.
BTW our first camping trip for the May 24 weekend has been booked at Ferris Provincial Park. We booked the same site we had last year but this time with the axle risers I won't bottom out when backing in to the site.................LOL

   We recieved our risers from Forest River parts and shipping was about $86.00. Installed them today torqueing the nuts to 120 lbs. tired me out. Everything looks good wish that I had installed them a long time ago. Now we can get a WDH that will have enough clearance from the ground.   David

Thanks Lou, I wasn't expecting the dealer price to include installation, just wishfull thinking.
The contact info is perfect, thanks for your response. Will be ordering them shortly.
 
Have a great winter, Gerald

Sorry Gerald...I answered too quickly...
 
My order was placed online at the following address:
 
 
I completed the info and asked about the risers...Brandie was the courteous person I dealt with.
 
I was quoted the $ 75.00 + UPS delivery charges (address dependant). As for the broker's fees and taxes, they were paid when the delivery was made.
 
Hope this helps.
 
Lou

Unfortunately, the quoted price was for shipment only....no installation included....if this isn't a ripoff I wonder what is.
