wadshing machine on fold down rear cargo rack

Another issue may be the quantity of hot water available.

How much of a beating will it take back there with the bouncing.

Why not just use the CG laundry facilities? Seems so much easier...

Thanks to all replies. Now to look for portable washer to use inside camper. Maybe twin tub. D.

Oops the machine will be bolted to rack not weled

Ok bare with me, why would metal fatigue be any different than inside the camper?

Look out when it gets to the spin cycle, probably crack a lot of welds due to metal fatigue. :(

Thank you for reply, discharge water will go into sewer. We'll be at a full hook up site.

Putting that much weight on the back of a travel trailer is a bad idea. The trailer frame is not designed for that weight and could cause structural problems. That much weight on the back lightens the tongue weight which could cause stability problems while towing. The machine itself is not designed to be out in the weather and you can expect for circuit boards and other electrical components to fail quickly. You could also expect rust to form in and around the machine ultimately rendering it unusable. Overall, this is a bad idea.

Where will you drain the discharge water? Beyond that, I don't see a problem, other than cosmetic...and that should only matter to you.
