Congrats! That looks fantastic!!!
How's getting the truck backed under? From the pic's, the legs almost look like they're touching the bed! Very toit!

Vertically - when i loaded it - I put 2 pieces of 2x8x12 under every jack to get me 3 more inches vertically
Horizontally - even with the swing out hinges on the front jacks, I saw it would not clear the bed. I had a local machine shop create 2 plates that added one more inch of width on each side which gave me 3/4" on each side as I put the truck under the camper.
