How to Load and Unload a Truck Camper onto your Pickup Truck

Показать описание
Truck campers are the perfect RV for exploring both the more common parts of the world as well as getting off the beaten road to experience more of the road less traveled.

We have taken our flatbed truck camper the entire length of the Dalton Highway in Alaska, on numerous off-road adventures throughout the United States and all throughout Baja, Mexico.

So we can definitively say that a truck camper is the perfect combination of mobility, durability and, of course, the convenience of home that you expect in an RV.

If you just bought a truck camper, or are considering purchasing one, you may be wondering how to load a truck camper onto your pickup truck.

It is simple. And complex. But really it’s just a matter of following a few steps that will become common and routine after you practice a few times.

Loading and unloading a truck camper can be stressful (particularly on a relationship between you and your significant other!). And while it seems common sense, we did struggle the first few times that we loaded and unloaded our truck camper from the bed of our pickup truck.

But after nearly 3 years of living full-time in our truck camper, we’ve boiled the process of how to load a truck camper into these simple steps.

Great video guys. Can you sleep in the overhead bed without it tipping when not on the truck?

Thanks for the video. How long before you were comfortable loading/unloading?

How is easy is all this to do for a solo traveler? I've been debating between a camper van or a truck and camper. I lean towards the second one as I could still stay in the camper if the truck needed repairs or vice versa. I found this video when searching for this topic but I'll look at more of your videos.

Thanks for the video. What is keeping those tool boxes from moving around on the bed? Are they welded on? Thanks

Do I need to pull something in to do this? I see you were unplugging a thick wire.

Hey how wide is your bed? And what is the measurement inside to inside on the jacks? I have a flat deck and want to load a camper but I’m worried that there won’t be enough clearance to get it mounted. Is it ok to rub the jacks slightly as you back the truck in?

I .noticed only takes 3 jacks to support my camper. As I load and unload I notice one sometimes has no pressure underneath.

After I load my camper my tire psi dropped to 45 from 75, Do I need to inflate the tire back to max cold psi?
