Well from all the talk of what it could cost if you scrapped something off the bottom of your trailer, FR decided lets increase the price. The 150 is I believe before shipping. Dealer was more.

You are right about the price.  Shipping will probably be another $20 or so.  Installation is very simple.  I believe I can install them in less time than it takes to make 3 trips to the dealer for the installation.

WinkI was one of the first owners to order the risers a few years ago.  I paid $200 plus shipping to Coaches RV.  Since that time, prices have fluctuated from $75/no installation to about $150.
It depends on the dealer...when I brought my Pod in for the spoiler installation...my dealer had risers for sale at about $110/without installation.
It will be worth your time to check with a couple of dealers and FR.  Don't forget that taxes and shipping can make a big difference in the cost from state to state.

I got mine for $110.00 from the dealer. I think he might have taken a bit of a beating on it though. He had a set in stock which he sold me for $110.00 but there were not for the Dexter axle that I have on my pod. he took them back and ordered the correct ones and gave them to me for the same price.

Sean, that makes me feel better.  I was beginning to think that perhaps FR was charging me more than the price from a dealer.  Unfortunately, FR has a monopoly on their parts.
