Question
HI. I have a 1998 gmc seaira ext cab 4x4 pickup. 1/2 ton. i want to put 1100# camper in back. what would be the best rear shocks to put on. when it;s on and off my truck. thank you..  

Answer
    If you are going to be taking the camper off and on a lot you will want to use air shocks.  You must monitor the air pressure regularly.  If the camper is going to be coming on and off infrequently, use the stock shock and an adjustable helper leaf spring.
