Ok, leaving tomorrow morning for my maiden voyage. Will be fishing the Kenai & Russian rivers for Salmon all week long :) :) :)
Questions:
1. Is there any way to increase the swing out distance of the front electric jacks? I've got the standard dually swing out jacks on there already but the flares on the new generation F350/450's are *HUGE*. I have maybe 1/4" to 1/2" on each side when loading, it is extremely tight and nerve wracking. Would love to get some extra space, even if it were only an inch or two on each side, would be extremely helpful.
2. I have heard you are not supposed to leave the camper unloaded on its jacks and then be inside. Is this correct? My campsite this weekend is about 15 minutes away from where I will actually be fishing. I was going to dump the camper and just take my truck out to the river but wasn't sure about this. Do you need to rest it on cinder blocks or something of that nature? If so, I'll just leave it on the truck. I thought about that "Stable Lift" system I have seen which supposedly alleviates that problem but that ground clearance looks iffy and honestly, I think it looks a bit awkward, but hey, if it works, it works.
Got her all loaded up with food and my camping supplies. I am sure once I get down there I will realize I forgot something. Last time I went camping I forgot the remote control to my media box so no movies! Guess I should focus less on movies and more on fishing, right? :) :)
