GRAVITY

The illustration indicates the recommended
cargo center of gravity location.

King Cab:

L1 = 41.5 in (1,054 mm)

WARNING

Improper loading may be dangerous. If a
load is too far back, it can affect handling
characteristics. If a load is too far forward,
the front axle may be overloaded.

When the truck is used to carry a slide-in camper,
the total cargo load of the truck consists of the
camper manufacturer’s weight figure, plus:

● the weight of installed additional camper

equipment not included in the camper
manufacturer’s weight figure,

● the weight of camper cargo,
● and the weight of occupants in the camper.

The total cargo load should not exceed the
truck’s pay load weight rating and the camper’s
center of gravity should fall within the truck’s
recommended center of gravity location when
installed.

WARNING

Overloading or improper loading can ad-
versely affect vehicle handling, braking
and

performance

and

may

lead

to

accidents.

the Tire and Loading Information label, see “Tire
