13 Secure loose items to prevent weight shifts that could affect the balance of your vehicle. When the truck camper is loaded, drive to a scale and weigh the front and rear wheels separately, to determine axle loads. Individual axle loads should not exceed either of the Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR). The total of the axle loads should not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). If weight ratings are exceeded, move or remove items to get the total weight below the ratings. 1 NOTE: These ratings are also provided on the vehicle certification label located on the driver’s side B-pillar. See Ъ page 211 for more information.
For any additional instructions, please contact your conversion/camper manufacturer or an authorized dealer.
