When I dropped it on the ball.....it barely changed the rear bumper height.
It won't fit under my carport so it won't go in the back near the garage, but I can leave it over at my Mom's house (until her estate is settled) about 30 minutes away.
Once the house is finished I'll have 50+ acres to figure out where to stash it.
Do you have room to store it?

Always a day late, and a dollar short.

Wonder how much trouble a person a guy would get in if he did it as a gag? You know leave the trailer empty, park it over a cover, then go inside for a period of time.

That's just cold!!! Hind sight got me a while back. When I bought my open deck for the 4wheeler I wish I would have bought enclosed. Ed, that's just the right size.

"That camper was SO small............
I had to go outside to change my mind."
PS:.
Where is the harness end of the blue brake controler wire I need to hook up to the wire running back to thwe 7-way?
I'm using the Prodigy Dodge harness that hooks to the multi-plug under the dash near the parking brake mechanism and the other end into the Prodigy.
I have the blue wire to the 7-way....but I can't figure out where the other blue wire comes out of the stock harness..........

I think I found the other end of the blue wire.........
Driver's side..........under the truck.....laying on my back......behind the left front plastic wheelwell splash guard.....are two multi-plug connectors.
One multi-plug has a light blue wire of the correct gauge....and when I pulled the connector apart.....it has no corresponding connector or wire in the "out-path" side.
If I was a Chrysler engineer....that exactly where I'd have put it.............................NOT.
It's getting dark....and coooooold.....I'll hit it with a multimeter tomorrow to confirm.
Edit to add:......YUP that was the correct wire.

Weird though, since another 2 feet of wire would have completed the circuit in your truck. If they were trying to save money why would they run the wire from the back to the front, and have the connector there, but not finish it by taking it inside the truck.
If you need anything I can look under my 99. Let me know.
