It may be moot now, but did you put any thought into a 3-point or 4-point diamond pivoting bed system? Sadly, if you do much off-roading, you may be in danger of pulling a truck camper apart, frame twist, by axle twist. There are ways to mitigate the problem, however. There are a couple gurus on Expedition Portal who have
BTDT with pivoting beds.
Another sure-fire way to locate your TC is by using camper guides: a quartet of triangle shaped metal stops (or facsimile) that reside in your bed to keep the TC in check. Some with campers that go all the way to the edge on flatbeds use 6 tabs to locate the camper on the bed. Two each side; two on the rear.
I have a buddie who has a MB unimog with the stock fold down side boards and an
Alaskan camper bolted to the bed. He keeps a lot of stuff along the sides. Cool rig.
