We purchased our first tc a year ago today,i was a complete newbie and didnt realize that this site existed before our purchase on craigslist,lol.I have learned alot from this site,feel almost like i know what i am talking about now,lol,like,avoid buying a tc with a cabover window,etc,but i did,oh well,more pro-flex,and i should have checked the screws under the lances wings...easy fix...i hope,thank you all for all the tips!!
loading the yet to be mine tc with the dually mirrors not flipped out in camper mode,not good..
got that sorted out
then noticed the tank issue with the aftermarket bumper
still not sure about the tank issue,i just use some blocking to keep the tc back a bit from the front of the box,keeps the tank clear,is that a holding tank or a cover?guess i am still learning a year later..the cabover is already high above the roof of my older chevy so i really dont want to use a bed mat etc,,
That's an insulated cover over one of your holding tanks. I have the exact same tank, though the factory Chevy bumper and had the same problem with my truck. I just blocked it a little farther back. Looks like you only need 1/2" or so? That's all I needed. Simple fix.
Good luck,

Very simple solution. Just put a 1 x 6 board across the front of the truck bed and let the bumpers for the camper rest against the board. Thats should move it back just enough.

Seal those clearance lights. More damage to the front end comes in through the clearance lights than the window. I have pictures that will substantiate that.
thanx dak,i was going to swap out my aftermarket bumper for a stock one,not now,i did spend the day pro-flexing my front window and clearance lights,sticky stuff,no rain in the forecast for the next 5 days,time to get up on da roof,lol
