We spent many days at less than 20 MPH - some of the hairiest times were at 7-12 MPH going down an 18% grade in mud in 1st & 2nd gears in low range with the tach pegged at 3200+ RPM, or pegging the temp gauge on the Allison climbing 7 Mile Hill in the NWT. Been there, done that too. Got another box of T-shirts.

With this additional information known, then the informed position to answer your question would be;
Well, HEL* YES !!!!!!
Spend the bucks, move the fuel tank and stop wasting time trying to work around what is really a simple solution, using the truck, camper, tie downs for what and how they were designed to be used.
Hope this answers your question.
