Loading with a flatbed and service body
I am considering trading in our 2017 Ram 3500 for a Ram 5500 with a Douglas Service Body. I like the Douglas brand as they have models specific to my camper. They are also close to home base for me. ...

We have a 9' body on a 60" wheelbase. The camper comes off everytime we get home. Our driveway is slightly crowned and loading can take take a few minutes more. Douglass is good and receptive to "armchair engineering". It's a process lasting months and it helps to keep the 3500 to deliver your Host and 5500 together. You can PM. Me also or FB your Host group and my wife can respond.
Thanks! Are you using std. frame mounted tie downs? Good advice on keeping the 3500 until the process is complete. The process is to bring both the truck and camper and they keep both while fabricating? I am hoping they do all their measuring and shop drawings and I can continue to use the camper with the old truck. How many months did yours take?
