This is the best I got right now for flatbed no lift and camper close to truck cab. It is possible.

That lower gap looks good, mine is stock height just leveled in the front. These trucks don't need lifts, I could fit 37's without issue.

Nice truck! Looking to order the Kings myself but a 10 month wait time!!!! What are they selling FWCampers....lol?
10 months is better than I have heard from them! They do ride really, I think I waited 3-4 months.

Did you ask them to make it especially for you, with a lower COG and such?

Steve (Durango) had it made and sold to me . Then he had a second one made for his new truck and Grandby. I'm sure it was made for the cab height clearance.
We are on the road chashing fall colors in it

I went with Firestone with Daystar cradles. I run them pretty low a lot of the time but love them for leveling and when I am fully loaded. I would say to keep the sag down I would run them. Mine are at 40psi when lightly loaded and up to about 65 when I'm heavy

Some updates to the camper storage with some OGC molle panels, these were the first version.
