Clarkie...

My husband read your post and asked me to tell you we have a 3124ks TM and pull it with a 2004 Chevrolet Duramax Diesel 3/4 ton truck. He felt sure he would not need a WDH. The dealer wanted 1000.00 for a WDH. We took delivery and brought it home without one. We decided to check some measurements. We measured both from the bottom of the back bumper to the ground and also from the front bumper. We did this without the TM and with the TB hooked up. It only dropped the back bumper about 2 and 1/2 inches without the WDH....but it lifted the front bumber about 1/2 inch. Then we remembered that many years ago we had a popup camper and took one 5,000 mile trip and when we got home we had to buy new tires for the S10 Trailblazer. The tires were cupped. We realized that it costs over 1000.00 for a set of tires for our Duramax...so we went to Campersworld and got a Robin WDH for under 200.00.
