GOING TO GO OVER LOAD 101 REFRESHER COURSE
Truck is an 2008 F350 Super Duty 4 door cab long bed 6.4L diesel with automatic SRW and full tank of fuel, 360lbs of humans in the cab, Raider Phantom canopy (I will be taking of the canopy of course, might it weight 260lbs) and with an after market front brush guard with a total weight of 9260lbs. The current front axel weight at the scale is 5440lbs and the rea axel is 3820lbs with that canopy.
The tires (SRW) are E load range 3750lbs. GVWR is 11500. That would leave me with 2500lbs max weight for a camper right ? Now I know the tiers can take up to 15,000lbs at 80 psi max pressure.... BUT GVR rules right ???
Regardless I would install the FIRESTONE RIDE RITE AIR BAGS, WIRELESS HD COMPRESSOR and maybe ? but even then I'm still only going to safely/legal have a total wet weight with gear camper of 2500lbs. Thats not a very big camper....I know buy a dually truck (not going to happen). Is there more to the story ? What am I missing out on here I want the bigger camper....![Hammer :hammer: :hammer:](https://www.forumsforums.com/3_9/images/smilies/SushiSmilies/hammer.gif)
