    3540 GK-R lower on Driver side

    My 5th wheel set unlevel in the front when towing, when I drop the legs, the left( drivers side ) sits 1 pin lower than the right does, does anyone else have this issue?

    That particular floorplan - and many like it - is 700 - 1,000 lbs. heavier on the driver's side than on the passenger's side. This is due to the megaslide with the refrigerator and other appliances and the bed slide being on that side. Some owners have put slightly heavier springs on that side to compensate. This is a suspension issue, though, rather than a frame issue.

    Rob got it! In camping form with loaded pantry and fridge, we were 890# heavier roadside when I scaled independent wheels of our 3350.
