No room for bed plug with Truck Camper
So I went to test fit my Lance truck camper on my 2017 F350 and the 7 pin trailer plug will not work because of a kickout on the truck camper.
The bed plug is mounted to open directly into the box, rather than at 90 deg front back or even down and there is not enough room to put my camper plug in. Plug is mounted to a 2" stand off box, not sure why, when I took it off, there is room for the plug to sit flush mounted.
Does anyone know of an adaptor to give a tight 90 deg to a trailer plug or a mod to change this mounting so it does not stick straight out.
I can make a flat plate to replace the stand off box, but thought I would ask here first.
