Lifestyle 5th wheel question
I was looking at this model and the specs. With the dry weight of the rig being over 14,000lb. are the two 7000lb axles enough??? Also those hugh slides scare me..

I'll put in my 2 cents as a 2014 Lifestyle LS36fw fifth wheel owner. We ordered ours with 8K axles and Dexter disc brakes. The 8K axles increased the payload to a point we will never see.
Scaled the way we travel for a 3 or 4 night trip with 1/4 tank of fresh water and empty holding tanks, no generator or washer/dryer: trailer weight 15320lbs, pin weight 3400, weight on axles 11920.
Very happy with our rig. The full wall slide has been around since about 2009. Lifestyle improved the drive system. Should not be an issue.
Good luck Phillip
I'd rather have too much than not enough! Don't know if I'd ever convince DH on that huge slide tho!
