Type of Tiedowns used: ?
Truck and Camper Setup: 2016 Arctic Fox 990



We have recently purchase a 2016 Arctic Fox 990 to be used primarily camping with our 4 seater RZR 1000. (Approx. 1500#). We borrowed a friends 12' single axle utility trailer last week and headed to the mountains. On the dirt roads the trailer bounced up and down dramatically due to the 30" extension we used, that came with the camper.

I don't believe we are at a weight concern on the vehicle (2015 ford F350 Dually w/ no specific towing upgrades at this time) with the single axle yet, but we have an opportunity to purchase a 12" dual axle utility trailer. I would have to believe that the dual axles would significantly reduce the trailer bounce. Does anyone have experience that they could share?

We also have a 20' Enclosed trailer that I would like to use at some point, but I think we are getting into many towing upgrades to the truck that we are not ready to make at this time. But may ask for advice at some point.
