Older slide in camper/new duallie

OK experts!

I just got my 05 Duallie - first CTD for me! Love it. Just added the torque lift camper tie downs. Also just bought a beautiful condition 1987 Komfort 81/2 ft slide in. Apparently, older pu beds were larger.

When we took the camper home, we placed it on cinder blocks because it didn't appear that it would fit in the bed unless it was lifted. We bought it anyway because of the deal and condition and I figured I could build a "basement" to hold T posts, shovels, etc...

When it was on the blocks, it looked like I could lower it at least a little more.

Has anyone had any similar issues? What were your solutions? Any other ideas???

Thanks,

Dave
