Dually leveling question
Just wondering when you level your dually do you use blocks under all 4 rear wheels or just the 2 outside ones, does it matter. Dave

I'm just guessing, but your math is off.
How do you plan to have 12000 lbs (6000 x 2) on the rear axle of a truck with only the truck camper as the payload? Most drw trucks have around 5000-5500 on the front axle. The GVWR is 14500 for the highest rated trucks with pickup beds. That only leaves 9500 at most or 4750 per side for the highest rated ones at max load.
Tires are rated for cold pressure, but frequently have a higher pressure. Is your solution for that case to stop and let air out, or do you think that tires can handle the higher pressure? How about a case where one of your DRW tires runs up on a curb? Are you expecting a blowout? I'm not.
As noted, I usually put both of my tires on blocks to level if needed.
