How to Load (and Unload) a Truck Camper
Some people are not too familiar with truck campers, so we wanted to show how easy it is to load and unload our truck camper. It takes about 5-10 minutes for us to do it. This is one of the larger models of truck camper. Smaller truck campers are available as well, such as the kinds that fit into a 6.5ft truck bed. We use Torklift tie downs and turnbuckles to secure it to our Ram 3500. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. Thanks for watching!

We just purchased a 2019 Palomino HS-2901 and are newbies in the game so this video was very helpful. Thanks!

Do you drain your fresh water tank before you drip the camper?

If it's super full then yes, but typically if its only 1/3 full or less then its fine. If we plan to leave the camper sit for a while then we drain it out completely

I noticed you did not move your license plate. Have you had any issues with any of the states you've been to by leaving it on your bumper?

No issues at all :)
Do you put any rubber padding in between the truck and camper?

At the time of this video we didnt - but we do now for the big arctic fox that we currently
I just bought a 2001 Lance truck camper. It has the Atwood electric jack system with the extenders on the front legs. I can't figure out how to move them in and out from the camper. The driver side is "stuck" in the out position. The passenger on the in position. I've lubricated the shafts with a liberal coating of WD40. I can't get them to move up or down as easily as you've illustrated, in this video. Any suggestions?

Hey Scott! Sounds interesting. So it's only one of the front jacks? Are you able to override it by cranking it manually if it doesn't go up and down? Unless you're talking about the jacks swinging in and out (like the dually mounts).

@@InfiniteExplorers ...I can see how my question could be confusing. My bad. @0.14, your lovely partner lifts the jack up and swings it out. Neither of the front jacks will move up or down. I've lubricated the the pivot shafts. Still they seem stuck. Sarah makes it look so easy.

@@perfectlylonely Hmm, were dually brackets installed on your camper? We had them added on as an accessory so it doesn't come standard on campers. If you do have dually brackets then we aren't too sure why they would be stuck.
