Hi Mike! I just signed up here myself. I use Air Lift bags in my 2004 Toyota Sienna. They get me about 2" of extra clearance. My minivan tows a 2010 Casita Spirit Deluxe.

Welcome and heres your first case. 1996 gulfstream conquest 102 with tag axle on a ford e-350 frame needs rear lift no drilling. With seperate left/right control from cockpit. Under 500 bucks. For a DIYer. Thank you.

Thanks for the welcome.

Conquest- the kit that we make for a 1996 E-350 would require four holes to be drilled through the side of the frame two per each side of the RV. The brackets provide clearance holes to line up the new holes onto.

The kit you would need is 57138, you can find the manual for it in the link below. You can look over the instructions and see if you feel comfortable with the amount of drilling required.

As for price, we suggest that you purchase the product through one of our retailers or locate a dealer near you.

In order to keep within your $500 budget, you would probably have to go with a manual control system. We do offer these in a dual (separate) configuration.

The price listed on our site is suggested retail, if you visit one of our retailers you will most likely find it for a better price.

Also, you may be able to afford a nicer controller by using the $100 rebate we are currently offering.

Mike;

First THANK YOU for the FAST response. This looks like it would be doable. I was afraid of having to drill a bunch of holes but 2 per side no big deal. The fun part will be jacking and removing the duallies. I just changed shocks on the tag axle so this shouldn't be that much harder.

What is the maximum lift I could expect to get from these. I have to back up over a curb to get RV into my parking spot. Right now I have about a 2 inches of clearance. I am hoping to lift it up then get either on road or back in drive and then lower it back down. That's why I wanted cockpit controls.

The amount of lift is going to vary from vehicle to vehicle, and depending on how much squat you are currently experiencing.

A typical response I see from most users though is around 2-3" of lift. Again, I can't guarantee any number specifically for your conditions but this is simply what I have seen.

I hope that helps.
