My dad just picked up a 2000 26 ft. Jayco Eagle and the truck in stock form (no lift kit) is super close to the bed rails
The Jayco has adjustable spring hangers and the RV place adjusted them to the highest position and it is still very close
I should say that the truck is a 2000 Quad cab shortbed with a Reese slider and it is running the stock size tires--265/75/16. The guy at the RV place (which happens to have a Duramax) was stunned that when he lowered the camper down that the truck hardly squatted
He said "if that was a Chevy it would have been on it's knees by now"
Anyway, he suggested taking the overload springs out of the spring packs. This truck DOES NOT have the secondary stage over load springs, just the normal pack. I don't know if I would do that or it will squat like a Chevy
Has anyone else done this?
