Hi I've got a friend looking to get the same camper that have, an adventurer 90fws which I haul with a long box, but were wondering if this will work on his shortbox 1 ton? The manual doesn't specify just says at least a 3/4 ton. Thanks for any info.

I have an 85ws that I ran on a regular short bed for a while, upgraded to a long bed, so much better. wouldn't want to try it with a longer camper.

Yeah the center of gravity mark on the camper is 33" from the front, my long box measures almost 40" from the front of the box to the axle, so I would think a short box would be ok? Will do some measuring

Mine has a centre of gravity mark on it at 42.25" from the front and is well forward of by trucks rear wheel axle. Check the distance from the front of the truck bed to the axle and see where the centre of gravity sits on the short bed truck.
