Just traded my 3/4ton gmc short box for a 1 ton f350 long box. Before I go out and buy swing out brackets for the front jacks I would like to know if my lance 3100 squire will fit on the f350. I have emailed lance but have not had a reply. thanks

This is nothing that you, a helper, and a tape measure can't figure out for yourself. IMHO, you've got three major areas to be concerned with:

1. Width between the wheel wells.
2. Width at the tailgate.
3. Height from bed floor to top of cab.

Measure the truck, then measure the camper.

You need about 100 inches of clearance between the jacks to fit a dually. You will need the swing-out brackets, more than likely.

If this is a new F350, you'll probably also need to raise the camper in the bed to clear the cab roof.
