It seems like you have a very good method in mind to resolve this. One thing that I want to add is consider moving the rear axle back 6", hangers and all. Distribute that load over a longer section of the frame opposite of how a teeter totter holds a load. Perhaps moving the axle back along with the method you are already getting set to do.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. All ideas welcome even if I do not use all parts of them, they help spur other ideas. I agree if the rear hanger was back 6" after a repair, it could help. Thinking through moving the axles back 6" is an "amount" of work including the fenders on the camper. The 6" back movement also adds some level more loaded tongue weight. This rear living floor plan already has a 1,600# loaded TW. The added TW may not be much but not to be lost sight of. I'll keep this in mind as I work through this.
Thanks again
John
