Agreed with the person above me. I am a novice on this issue but when doing my research, before buying both components to my TC rig, I concluded the same thing. It's not about CVWR.. it's about the Center of Gravity. Even if the truck can handle the weight, it's going to throw it off it's not properly centered/evenly distributed.
If you already have the truck, don't mess around.. get a short box camper. If you already have the camper, get the right truck.
And don't assume everyone is overloaded. That's dangerous no matter what you do to upgrade suspension, etc... Nothing you do will up the CVWR. Those mods just help with the feel of the drive and how the camper sits on the truck. Good luck! Bigfoots are the best!
