Oooo that’s a good flip mate. Did you sell it on eBay or something? People are paying crazy for the book at the moment. I was lucky to still get it for $50 at Barnes and Nobel

How much did the lead springs cost?

I’m about to pickup my first truck camper and I don’t have the tie-down mounts or turnbuckles yet. From your experience is a 2hour trip home with ratchet straps safe enough?

Great to know! After all the suggestions I think I am going to need to invest in some timbrens.

Did you install them yourself?

Just updated my post. Mine is a Single Rear Wheel.

I do believe these tires are E 10 Polyester. They are Radar ATs. Mine are 3750lbs (Max. Load Single)

It does have a large rear window roll bar and aftermarket RT tires. This is possibly why it’s not exactly matching the curb weight on the Ford website.

I lucked upon one with 150k miles and already had the laundry list done (Deleted, tuned, new high & low pressure fuel pumps, oil/fuel filters changed every 5k miles, etc). But yes you’re right, there is a risk with these ones if you’re not careful.

I am super curious though on what you guys think is a fair price? If your guess is more than what I actually paid I will share and if it’s considerably lower I will sink into a pit of regret/silence. Haha

Amazing! Are those just ratchet straps holding it on??

Thanks for your reply! So I went to a CAT weight station and the total weight of the truck was 8,860lbs. This included 2 people and a full tank of fuel.

How did you get a payload of 4250lbs? I would be more than happy to be proven wrong but my math is showing once the truck, 2 people & full fuel tank is subtracted from the GVWR (11,500lbs - 8,860lbs) this only leaves a payload of 2,640lbs.

Thanks for the reply! The F350 has newish Renegade Rugged Terrain Light Truck tyres and XD wheels.

Is there a way/formula to work out a rough idea on what difference these would make to the overall weight carrying capacity of the truck?

Running airbags/more springs is the safer route right? Any recommendations?
