An axle flip may cause issues down the road, especially now the bow / camber of the axle is upside down. You can loose alignment once flipped, affecting not only tire wear but overall handling.
Easiest way to get ground clearance, put suspension on top of the axle. Dexter makes a spring Over-Under conversion kit.
I've not changed my camper height or axle/spring flip. You do have to purchase the spring mounts and have them welded on the other side of the axle. Or you can have the dealer do this, but I'm not sure of the costs involved from the dealer. I've no need at this time for the height increase, the axle will still be the same, just the body of the camper would be up out of the weeds a bit more. (and the water tank)

Best advice, get out and check things yourself before relying on the other folks to guide you. LOL

I've been renting a truck instead of taking mine. The old GMC (1985) has no radio, working AC etc. It doesn't like the summer heat either (vapor lock). So it's cheap enough to rent a modern truck and make the family happy during the trip. Rental 3/4 ton Crew Cab 4x4 is $300 for Friday/Sat/Sun return monday morning. I also get to do a real world test drive the different makes and models this way.
