Hi, Just noticed I have a slight lean to the left like 1" difference (drivers side) on my 2017 F250 and Camp Lite TC 8.6. I have super springs that are on a medium setting. Should I change them to the heavy setting or will I still get that little bit of lean?

Is your camper loaded in the middle of your bed, or off to one side?

It is in mid and if anything a little more to the opposite side of the lean. So that is not the problem.

Hmm. I'm guessing there is some weight difference in how things are loaded/built in the camper. From my limited experience, I think of helper springs as raising the back end of the rig up. I need to tighten mine to lift the rear of my current setup with a heavier camper.

Yeah, I am hoping increasing the tension will negate that 1" sag from the unbalanced camper probably due to propane tanks, fridge, microwave, tv etc etc all on that side.

I would just add some tension to the one side if you can.

^ If it leans even more when loaded, then the camper is heavier on one side (obviously). However this isn't necessarily a problem.
Bags can certainly correct that. But I've learned that unless there's an actual problem, sometimes its "just fine" even though it aint perfect!

That's what Ford says. LOL I think it is their new motto.
