Using truck camper once unloaded
This our first truck camper a '08 990 Arctic Fox. We are volunteering at a State Park for the summer, and love it. I would like to be able to use the truck for trips to town or what ever. My question ...

Lance specifically states in the owner guide not to store the camper on jacks. I asked someone at Lance and they said that the camper was designed to have its weight supported on the 4 jack stands. Makes sense as the framing is going to be stronger and cradle the weight. A jack stand is going to push up against a small area of the base of the camper unlike a truck bed that sports the floor 100% uniformly.
Once lowered to within 18" of the ground the jack stands are very stable. We added Wobl-stopprs but it was not really necessary.
Space is at a premium with a truck camper rig. No point in using it up needlessly with a bunch of jack stands that add no needed support and have the potential to actually cause damage to the camper.
