I could get at least back to the rear differential with one.
If I pan the truck, does that mean I can omit a front air dam, if I get it all brought together smoothly?

Hope you'll continue with these thoughts.
Sure do like that truck bed. The CM brand is popular here in South Texas among oilfield hotshot truck owners, and I've long admired the all-aluminum beds by
Alum-Line. Don't often see aero work on this type, but some designs better than others.
Is there a link to a thread elsewhere about the truck rear suspension.
Is that trailer running AL-KO axles? If original they are possibly/likely past due for replacement. A friend recently spec'd heavier axles than stock on his 34' aero aluminum 1990 conventional AVION as the original configuration was no longer available and other brands may not be up to the task. I don't recall if he also went to taller tires/wheels, but he did indicate an slight increase in ride height (the thought of all this being that some other dimensions may change if axles/wheels changed).
DODGE & AVION: great combo.
