New Ram 5500 Build
We were running over 13K on the rear axle of a 2019 Ram 3500. Despite it handling the load well (with mods), we knew it wasn't responsible to continue with that rig and have spent the last few months ...

We've ordered a similar 5500 84" cab to axle. 3-4 month wait! We are planning a 11' flatbed also, but we'll hang the camper(arctic fox 990) off the back end of the bed like it does on the 8' bed. We plan to use the space between the camper and cab for a large storage box to carry bikes.
Do you ever run into much issues with dragging those rear boxes when you drop off an incline or something?
We kept an eye on them, took things slow in sketchy areas, and if close, we'd get out and put rocks or wood down to use as a step and make the transition easier. Only had to do that once, that I recall. I ended up selling the rig and changing things up again.
