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..

When I ordered our 2014 LS36fw the 8K axle with Dexter disc brakes that option was $3975. The upgraded 17.5 inch wheels/tires on mine was $1425.
Thanks for posting some figures Phillip! The disc brakes on the 8K axle was more than I would have guessed. I know the 5200/6000 axle is pretty much the same, maybe just bearing difference. I thought maybe the 7K/8K would be similar as well, and not all that expensive. I'm sure the disc setup, was a big portion of the cost.
Nice to not have to worry about the standard tires/wheels. A good upgrade there!
You have a really nice rig, hope you are enjoying it!
Thanks again, for posting!
