Can Our F350 Carry a Lance 1191 Safely?
I am hoping that some of you with experience with truck campers can assist us in determining if our truck can handle the truck camper we are looking at. We have been assured by the dealer and the man...

Thanks for giving us the trucks actual front and rear axle weights.
Your F350 DRW has a 8250 RAWR for carrying loads in the bed. Most TCs add little if any weight to the trucks front axle so its not a worry.
Your trucks rear axle weighs 3160 lbs which leaves around 5000 lbs for a max payload. I don't know how much the TC your looking at will weigh so you do your own math.
Some folks use the trucks GVWR to determine a payload. Its safe also.
I wouldn't add a thing till the TC is loaded. Then is the time to make a decision if any suspension help is needed on those big 8250 lb RAWRs and four tires.
