Montana 5th wheel

We bought our 2007 Montana Mountaineer used. In 4 years of full timing, we have had one problem that was not self induced. The window in the bedroom broke and I have never found out why. I did not like the cheap spring shackles or original brakes, so I replaced both of those items. The dry nylon bushing spring shackles were replaced with Mor-Ryde wet bolts and the 6000 pound brakes with 7000 pound self adjusting. The interior has held up well. Of course, I am biased, but I do not think you can get a better fifth wheel for the money than Montana. There are better units out there, but the price difference is large.

The upgrade suspension on the Legacy gives you wet bolts, bronze bushings, half inch thick shackles, never adjust brakes and Morryde 4100 equalizer. This combined with the Goodyear 614's makes me feel pretty good going down the road and not worrying about tires coming apart. Also the rear cap on the Legacy looks really nice since the standard rear cap not is not attractive in my opinion.
