Hallmark Cuchara 9.5 ft is 1893# dry weight. There's almost nothing over the truck cab but the frame, some canvas, and the mattress.
I'm seriously missing something in this conversation.
I don’t feel like justifying my quest for better handling
But we have a TON of solar on the front of the roof
Plus a bunch of stuff in the under bed storage
So yes, you are missing some details.
But as I said - I don’t want to justify my desire for a less jittery ride when on rough pavement. You don’t need all the details on my rig.
I just want to learn of possible fixes.
And total wet weight of rig is 11,300 lbs.
I recall it was fairly closely split between front and rear axle. And it rides dead level.
Didn’t you come here asking for advice?
Good luck...
You must have not participated in the saga of choosing this truck and camper....
If you had, this thread and his responses would be expected.
LA, so what are the weights? That would help.
And a better description than Webster’s definition of “jittery” may help, although I’m fairly convinced advice from others will not, until you find an opinion that happens to match your pre-conceived, yet likely ill-advised notion.
As another member said, I perceive jittery akin to a rough ride, like an unladen truck with stiff springs and too much tire pressure. Like getting a little sideways while accelerating over washboards.
And your perception of how it “should” ride has no basis for comparison as I recall from your past threads.
Good luck!
