    Frame Strength

    I'm going to preface this question with "I know the manufacturer says no, and Lippert will void the warranty"..... And....I don't need input on the legalities of it....I can google and read the law.... Not trying to be a smart ass, but want to keep it on topic. Do you think the frame is...

    Wall Thickness & Construction

    Looking to find the Wall thickness and construction differences between the Eagle HT, Eagle, North Point, and Pinnacle. Purely out of curiosity. I can't seem to find specs on the wall construction and thickness anywhere on any of Jayco's brands. Anybody know or know where to find this info?

    A-frame owners ONLY: your experiences towing with mid-size SUVs?

    I am starting to think about my next vehicle purchase. Currently I own a compact car and my TV (Ridgeline). As both are quite high-mileage, I am considering selling both of them and purchasing a single newer "compromise" vehicle (high gas mileage + sufficient towing ability). Much as I'd like...

    2015 Rockwood A192HW frame size?

    Does anyone know if the frame is 3", 4", or ??? I currently have my trailer in winter storage, and am thinking of ordering a WDH hitch from eTrailer.com. I know most brackets are adjustable, but it would be good to know. Merry Christmas by the way!!

    Lippert through frame slide out gearbox ?

    One of our 3 slideouts stopped working today. When the DH presses the slide out button I can hear and feel the motor spin, but nothing happening in the gearbox mounted directly to the end of the motor. I suspect a shear pin or drift pin has been broken as there was no bad operation in the first...

    I have a 2016 Chevy Silverado regular cab, short bed 4X4 pickup. I found out that I can flat tow the pickup by putting the transfer case in neutral. I just had a Boss snowplow mounted on the truck so there is a substantial subframe for the plow mounted to the truck frame. Is it possible to...

    Are all outside aluminum campers wood frame?

    It seems as I search for a camper all of the travel trailers with aluminum on outside are wood frame. All the composite/fiberglass outside material campers are aluminum framed. Is this pretty much the standard or are there aluminum bodies with aluminum frames as well? Thanks!
