Hey guys,
I am picking up a 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 HD with the 6.4 foot bed. My camper is an 8' Northstar so I will have about a foot and a half of overhang, with the tailgate down. There is no portion of the camper that drops down below the bed of the pickup.
I tow a 20' Malibu ski boat. Pretty light (2,700 lbs loaded) on a single axle trailer. The truck has the factory 2" hitch. Hoping to avoid the whole Torklift 2 and 1/2 inch conversion. Ideas? I think using a longer ball mount like this might work.

Or this is an option someone else uses on the Mailbu forum
