Need some insight with height.

Remove them. They where added for running a tanker trailer. No point in rising your trailer to where it will most likely hit things, especially since you’re towing a moving van so you’re more likely to find low branches and telephone lines in residential areas.

 

You're fine at 13 6

One of our vans with 11R24.5 on the tractor measures 13,7-13,7.5 and i run a lot of jersey/Rochester/Albany w/o issues. Just use your head and you'll be fine.

If you own the truck take em off

 

If you take them out you will lose some clearance between your rear fenders and bottom of trailer. That rear panel looks like it will become an easy target for a kingpin too

 

Remove the fenders and bars.

Standard height is 13.2 anyways. I wouldn't want to mess with 13.6 on the east coast.

Put yourself up along side the megas and compare trailer heights.

 

Do you break out in a cold sweat on the cross Bronx ...?

 

I cross the hudson Newburgh and above LOL. There was a few places in the Ironbound section of newark i dropped the suspension just to be safe and creeped under

 

Tree limbs will be your biggest problem. I’m 13’7.5 and set off the warning signs around Memphis. I have experimented and found that it takes 5 seconds to drop 2”. So far I haven’t hit the 13’8 bridges on the south side.
Also scales have height sensors,so you have to watch for those.

That’s the one everybody gets under trying to get into Ironbound off of 21/McCarter Hwy. it’s a tight one though.

 

13’6 is fine. I stay in the middle lane through there anyway.
