Mystery Damage to my truck. From the camper??

I originally thought this was from my camper. I have absolutely no clue. I made a video in hopes someone would know what caused this. https://youtu.be/djhJfPwoNlA

  • Maybe swap sides for the brackets. Pictures would help since it’s hard to pause the video to see it clearly, for me.

In either case, the body bushings are where it's likely rocking and it is moving enough to make contact. Could be cab is moving one way and camper the other on rough roads, over bumps, etc.


    Even with the Fast Guns attached? It happened on one side but not the other.
  • Looks to me like the DRW brackets are installed wrong. They should be parallel to the TC sides, but appear to angled toward the cab.

    Btw, it’s normal for the TC to move side to side some. You just have minimal clearance.
