2008 Lance Camper (model 1055) Question

Hello Racorman. I have a 2008 1055 and I love it. You need to post what truck you will be putting it on and how far the camper front edge is from the front of the truck bed. I instelled a headache rack on my 05 2500 chevy so I needed to put a 2X4 spacer between the camper and front of the truck bed. I don't have the TC on the truck but I can give you some measurements of the 1055 if that will help.

Thanks.... The camper will be on the long bed (8')Chevy and I'll probably use the same 2 x 4 as you are doing. If that helps.....

Check the price on Tweety's. It may be cheaper. It was for us and it was delivered in a few days. AND it was shipped FREE! Can't beat that.

ooooh right up my alley. I have an 08 1055 on my 03 f350 with a superhitch and a super truss for pulling my 3 horse Sundowner Valuelite 727 slant load. I use the Huskey load leveling hitch. I went with a 48" extension but I could have gotten away with a 42" the longer truss just keeps the trailer farther out on a sharp turn

oh and that measurement on my rig is 39"

The longer the extension the less the towing capacity so get the shortest one that will work with your camper. The load rating for the 21" is 40% greater than for the 60" extension. Torklift provides a measuring guide on their website.
