Re: Info on 1972 chevrolet
Camper special was setup to handle the extra weight of a slide in camper. Some of them weight up to 3000 or more. Chevy installed HD rear axles to carry the load. Usually a "full floating" rear end. What this means is the load is carried on the housing not the axle as is the case for cars. The load rating also necessitated a 8 lug wheel and higher rated tires (10ply )
