Just to throw this out there, to the OP and anyone else thinking of putting a 'slide in' camper in a half ton truck.. If you have 'modify' or 'beef-up' or 'upgrade' anything on the truck due to what you are putting in the back of it, you shouldn't be putting it in that truck... No matter what suspension, tires, etc.. you put on, the axle limit is still not increasing, the axle is not growing in diameter, the brakes are not growing - you can not just throw some airbags or springs in a half ton and expect it to increase the payload / safety of the truck / camper combo. I live in Buffalo NY and see people from Canada (Ontario) all the time around here.. mini vans towing 24+ foot long trailers, I have a pic in my phone of an Explorer Sport Trac towing a 28' camper...even with WD system it was riding on the rear wheels - it is UNSAFE and anyone that gives advice to someone looking to exceed their vehicles limits / stated laws should all have their tires slashed and be forced to drive a golf cart the rest of their life. (maybe a 10 speed bike for nicer weather) Just my two cents EDIT: I am not saying that all people from Canada tow incorrectly or that the OP is either, I am just saying that it seems like whenever I see someone all messed up towing, I see a CA plate with it...
