    hey all,

    I just picked up a 19 DC limited to be used as our new camp rig. I will putting a 3/4 ton slide in camper in the back and am looking for advice on how to achieve a 2-3inch lift and keep the back from sagging. We will be using this truck off-road (we won’t be full on wheeling it). Any advice would be greatly appreciate.

    Welcome.

    Let me get this right:

    - Slide in camper is ~1750lbs
    - Wanting a lift and not sag.

    Is the camper left in the bed at all times?

    That would be a lot to carry on a high-center of gravity...

    The slide in fully loaded will be roughly 1500-1600lbs and will be in the bed full time. The truck will mostly only be driven for weekend excisions. Correct. Lift, no sag.

    Thanks
