Hey Griswolds-5,
Mine is the box A-frame. I mentioned that I may have re-inforcements done because my Brother is a welder. Although he lives out of state he said he would do them if he comes to visit. I have pulled this trailer through some mighty tough terrain with no indication of the problems stated in the settlement documentation. As posted above, there is no monies available from the settlement so all repairs would be out of pocket. My experience is that in my case, my trailer was solidly built although far from being "superlight" after being loaded for travel. All travel trailers would benefit from some form of frame re-inforcements primarily due to them being barely built to handle their stated specifications. That's the way of the RV world. Good Luck and happy travels.
