    Going full-time....but have to buy a 5th wheel first

    Relocating Trailer Springs

    The reason for the lower bolt holes is 4x4 trucks, they are usually taller than 2WD vehicles. I moved my shackle bolts down to the lower holes which made the trailer more level.

    Will my truck camper fit?

    There should be a center of weight distribution on the side of the camper, it should be foward of the rear axle.  If not it will not work.

    Are toilet treatment Chemicals even necessary??

    Never touch the stuff and 3-5gal of water before moving is plenty. We never had a problem.
