    Frame Mounted Wheel Chock

    Walking around an RV show at a local outlet mall yesterday. Just looking at prices, and whatnot. Not in the market to buy anything, but we're always curious how all the brands do things. Ran across a small, single axle trailer, I forget the brand, but it was a serious unit for going offroad...

    How does your A Frame door seal?

    Could a few of you please take photo's of how your door seals, particularly when folded down? During heavy rain while our A-Frame is parked, after erecting it there is water right where the top half of the door lays flat. I've got a few more leaks I think I can seal, like bubble windows, but...

    Frame warranty question

    I have a 2020 Cedar Creek 31IK with some frame issues. I am unable to locate my warranty paperwork. For some reason I am thinking it was for 3-years. Does anyone know? And, by chance does anyone have a copy of the Frame warranty. I believe Lippert is the maker of the frame. Thanks for your help.

    A frame roof leaks when down

    Rockwood A213HW—rear roof panel sags about 3/8” side to side where front panel closes onto the weather strip leaving a gap in the middle. Woke up with an idea that seems to be working with no problem. I added a 1/8 x 2” piece of aluminum flat stock (got at Home Depot). Used a block of wood...

    A-Frame Roof Raising in Strong Wind

    Wall and frame flex question

    I have a 2018 vengeance touring 5th wheel. I attached a couple pictures to help show. The drivers side has a slide out for the bedroom. There is a relief cut in the wall below it that I figured is for movement to prevent cracking. When hitched up and loaded the joint will move about a 1/8 to 1/4...
