Correct board for raising camper?
Is this the correct insulating board for raising older camper in modern truck?

If you need to raise you camper to clear rails or cab, cut three/four pieces of one inch composite decking and screw it directly to the bottom of the camper, front, rear contact point, and one or two in the middle, cross-ways on the bed, not length-ways. You can add glue, but that makes it difficult to replace if you ever damage a board. If you need more than one inch, then use 2x4 pressure treated, or 2x6 if you have a long bed camper.
Then, you're camper sits higher and right on the bed-pad, and it never moves. I've done this to both a Fleetwood and Lance. Sixteen years total, mountains, desert, highway, off-highway, whatever ... never has an issue with movement.
PLUS, it gives you ventilation under the camper, so it never sits in water.
