    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West How centered is your camper?

    If it really bugs you, jack it up a bit and put a couple pieces of spacer wood on either side and lower it again. I would probably do something like this, keep the pieces of wood to use each time I wanted to put the camper on. my two cents

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Pulling a trailer while carrying a FWC

    So, I'm thinking of putting a Grandby on a 6.5-foot bed with the tailgate down. Occasionally I may want to tow a trailer (boat or utility). Anybody out there doing something like this? Just wondering how much hassle dealing with the trailer might be.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Alaskan on 6.5 ft bed?

    I've been corresponding with Bryan and he says he can make one that is short enough to fit inside the tailgate of a 6.5 foot bed. The compromise is that the couch will be a bit shorter than 6 feet. That works for us, since neither of us is 6 feet tall. It would also allow us to lock the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 1/2 ton vs 3/4 ton

    New user here. After reading through this and several other threads, I have some ideas. I'm thinking of putting either a Grandby or Hawk (shell that I'll build out as light as possible) on a new F150 (2015, Aluminum body). This is an extended cab, 6.5 foot bed vehicle. Weight should not be...
