Looking for idea on how to support my camper of truck?

I would like some of these that are holding this camper.Being light is very important. Where can you buy them?

If you make your X pattern only 12 inches high, then you put two at each end instead of just one. This would then span the whole width of the base of the camper. Lay four two by sixes flat onto the X pattern, and set the camper down with the camper side edges supported by the two by sixes.

This holds the camper off the ground at 13.5 inches up.

I built mine out of slotted angle iron many years ago and it works just dandy.

used pallets

If I was storing on a flat surface, the plywood X would be my first choice. Nice advantage is with an extra piece of rubber, you could lay them in the bed of the truck to carry them with you.

At home, I have a 5x8 3,500# capacity trailer I slide in under the camper then lay a couple boards across the rails and rest the camper down. Worked well and saved the camper from being totaled when a contractor backed into with the ladders on their trailer. Bent a couple of jacks, but the trailer caught the weight.

Though I have been using the trailer for about 5 years, I've been wanting to make a nice set of saw horses. Not those cheap things from Lowe's as they don't carry enough weight. Only reason I haven't built them is I want to go beyond the normal and make the easily collapsible to fit in the bed of the truck before sliding in the camper so I can carry them with me.

LOL!

Of Course I would also still use the camper legs.

Naked, that 'X' design (made from 3/4", or 23/32" plywood, can hold a maximum of 2400#'s. But painted, they can easily support up to 2950#'s. This, as determined from the manufactures adjusted paint index for customized lumber products, available on line.

You're going to hear a dozen stories about how that will never work, or plywood has no strength that direction, or it's a great idea and will support a loaded 11' camper with quad slides.

Those and a set of 4x's across each one (so that edges of the frame are supported) and your jacks would probably be just fine. And cheap. And take about 30 min to cut up. Paint, well, that's to anal for me. But it's pretty for sure.
