I would only use generators designed for the front of the 5th like onan and generac. Otherwise you are mounting an air cooled generator, designed to sit in the open, in an enclosed area. Then there is the whole exhaust gas thing.
There is a you tube showing a guy that mounted a winch to raise and lower generator in and out of front of 5th.
My plan is to use Larin tailgate lift to raise and lower my eu2000's in and out of the front of the 5th.
x2 on the designed idea... have a 5500 onan LP in the front compartment. gets air and exhaust air out the bottom... has the transfer switch mounted in the rear near the fuse pannel... works great.
