Re: Cargo Carrier for Lance 830
GMAN, The model number of the ROLA is 59500. Price is $140 at etrailer.com. Description states from the pin hole in the tube to the front edge of the tray is 10". If your camper is on your truck,measure from the pin hole back 10" and see if the tray will clear the back of your camper to your satisfaction. As you stated earlier, a foldable model may allow even more clearance. They do make a foldable model also. A couple of qualifications. One, my cargo carrier is 6 or 7 years old. That said, the picture and description on etrailer looks identical to mine.492Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cargo Carrier for Lance 830
I had a 08 845 for about four years. I replaced it with a 830. I used a 18" extension with the 845. I also use the 18" extension with the 830, mostly towing a 6x10 enclosed trailer. With a 9.75" ball mount, the ball is within 1-2" of the end of the camper. At other times I have used a ROLA polypropylene hitch cargo carrier that easily clears the back end of the 830. Your picture suggests you have a standard(6'9")bed which is the same length Super Duty bed on my truck.If your hitch weight is going to be under 200 hundred pounds as you stated, I think you could find a workable solution with your present receiver and a 18" extension.492Views0likes0CommentsRe: Raising camper height...wood/foam/rubber etc...
I also have used the pink foam from HD on two different truck campers successfully for several years. I have always used the two inch. My present camper really only needs 1/2 - 3/4 inch for adequate clearance. I have always put the foam directly on the bed and it fits itself and conforms to the ribbed bed surface. Has anyone used 1/2 or 3/4 foam? If so, how has the thinner sheets held up?662Views0likes0Comments
