The total cargo load must not be more than your
vehicle’s CWR.
Refer to the Truck-Camper Loading Information
label in the glove box for dimensions A and
B as shown in the following illustration.
Use the rear edge of the load oor for
measurement purposes. The recommended
location for the cargo center of gravity is at
point C for the CWR. It is the point where the
mass of a body is concentrated and, if suspended
at that point, would balance the front and rear.Here is an example of proper truck and camper
match:
A.Camper Center of Gravity
B.Recommended Center of Gravity Location Zone
When the truck is used to carry a slide-in camper,
the total cargo load of the truck consists of the
manufacturer’s camper weight gure, the weight of
installed additional camper equipment not included
in the manufacturer’s camper weight gure,
the weight of camper cargo, and the weight of
passengers in the camper. The total cargo load
should not exceed the truck’s cargo weight rating
and the camper’s center of gravity (A) should fall
within the truck’s recommended center of gravity
zone (B) when installed.
