Ive never heard of this problem with a ford before. I know alot of the 99-era dodges had recalls because the rear end sat too high for alot of fifth wheels.

From our very own FAQ under the 99+ Super duty TSB section:

99-14-5 - Rear Suspension too high/low with a 5th Wheel

Problem - Clearance concerns may occur when using the vehicle to tow certain gooseneck trailers

Action - Ride height may be reduced or increased ON SOME VEHICLES BUILT ON OR BEFORE 2/14/99. The only authorized adjustments allowed are:

Lower the vehicle by changing the 4" (10 cm)spacer to a 2" spacer (5 cm) along with the other rear suspension hardware.
Raise vehicles that are percieved as riding too low and that have had TSB 98-17-2 performed with the 2" spacer (5 cm) block along with other rear suspension hardware
