Truck Camper Disposal?
Hey all- It's finally time to let go of my '92 Lance. It's in pretty ratty shape, and while that's fine for me it's not so fine for me and my SO at the same time. So I'm going to be moving on to ...

I posted no "misinformation". Mine does tuck up pretty nicely. Ground clearance with a SL depends on how much low hanging stuff is under your truck and how low your truck sits.
And when you do whack a camper jack leg, it rips out. When you whack a Stable Lift, usually nothing happens.
How many times have you heard of a camper jack being torn out? How many times have you heard of a Stable Lift being damaged?
Holy cow, look at how far extended those Stable Lift frame brackets you showed are! Mine aren't out nearly that low! You've posted an extremely low SL and an unusually high-clearance pop-up camper. I call that stacking the deck.
Even if the SL tube was flush against the body of that truck (which isn't going to happen if you have a rear hitch mounted anyways) you can see that the jack foot would still be at least 8 inches higher off the ground then the bottom of the SL.
How exactly is my camper "unusually high clearance"? The fact that it is a pop-up is immaterial to the equation. My truck is sitting at stock height with only a half inch of extra ground clearance due to the tires being 1 inch taller then the largest OEM tires for it.
Feel free to post pictures showing your ground clearance to the bottom of the SL tubes on your rig.
