Best way to store a truck camper
I recently purchased a used 2011 Wolf Creek truck camper, but won't be using it much until this summer. I am new to the RV world, so not sure how I should store it when it's not on my 2006 Ram 3500 s...

Caveat: Maybe supporting an aluminum framed camper isn't as important as supporting a wood framed camper due to the increased rigidity of the aluminum.
I know this...the guy that loaded my camper onto the truck used the jacks to "walk" the camper around in order to line it up. It made the most horrible torquing and twisting sounds as he did it. My wife and I looked at each other in shock. He saw the look on our faces and said, it's alright. Still, I wasn't convinced. He further said that "You can even replace one jack with only the other 3 supporting it".
I've since confirmed THAT part with other NW owners. But apparently, not something you want to do on a regular basis. So...I figure, if an aluminum framed camper can do that, why can't it just sit pretty supported by the jacks alone?
Either way, I guess I'm building a dolly now. This forum tends to make me paranoid.
