5th Wheel Height

I know you guys are all Ford nuts, and I love mine too, but I have a 2002 Dodger 3/4 ton 4X4 that am going to use to tow a 5th wheel. However, all of the 5th wheels I look at that are in my price range are too low to work on my truck. The bed rails are even with the bottom of the overhang on the trailer. Everyone says flip-up the axles, well that will only get you 4-5" of room and that is just not enough to me for clearance over the bed rails. Does anyone have any ideas/solutions to this problem.

I found the a perfect 92 Holiday Rambler, but it will not fit over my truck.

Thanks!

I flipped the axles. then bought a taller tire-wheel combo. Brought it up to the hight I needed at the tune of $1150.00 total. I feel a lot safer now.
