One of my swing out brackets failed and caused the camper to fall on the side and land on my wife's car
This story is of more concern than the winter driving issue...
In all this discussion, there is ONE anecdote about a failed swing out bracket, and this is a cause for concern?
I mean, if several people reported swing out bracket failures, then maybe it would be a concern. Here it's a one-off thing, which you will have to expect for any product. Nothing is 100% reliable.
Even without the dually brackets the jacks could still collapse and dump the camper on the ground, so maybe you should get rid of your truck camper. What a ridiculous notion!
The point is you're already taking many risks. It makes no sense to draw the line at this.
in the past there have been many reports of a camper collapsing for unknown reasons many were blamed on driver error loading and unloading but, not verified as the cause . In fact Paul Beddows posted 1 or 2 pictures of at least 2 different campers that had collapsed .link to discussion
