Moving a truck camper. just 10 feet
Hello,
Im fairly new to the truck camper. I have a Lance Squirelite 195. It has a 9'6" floor. I'm trying to store the camper in my drive way but due to an overhanging roof eave I cant get it where I need to put it. The camper is on a F350 dually. Im thinking that if I can somehow lower the camper I can get it under the eave. I've seen dollies that can do that but I really dont want to buy a dolly. Thats probably a $1300 investment. Im wondering if I could rent a utility trailer. Put the camper on its legs, pull the truck out, slide a 6 foot wide utility trailer (rental) under the camper. Lower the camper on to the trailer which should get me below the eave. Then I can move the trailer back and Im where I need to be. Thoughts..Comments..
My big concern is the weight of the camper. I believe that to be around 3000 pounds. Can the utility trailer hold that?
