As to those that think I am over weight your wrong, the frame extension is very thick 5x2 metal tubes as thick as factory frame about 5 foot long inserted thru Fleetwood frame to factory frame and welded in many spots and welded hitch to tube extension as well as 4 inch cross tubes on extensions and under hitch, I assure you its not going no where, also I am using 10,000 lb rated ball/receiver with 1500 lb tonged weight rating, again more than I need but I like being over safe.
Air bags to keep it all level, 95 pounds of air in rear tires, Jeep sits balanced on trailer with 4 electric brakes on two 6000lb axels.
My motorhome is the 32W, its about 2500-3000lbs lighter than the 35-36 foot models that sit on the same F-53 frame, however they have the 22.5 tires mine has the 19.5, full banks system for that extra power and I am always packed lite in RV, just my basics.
My Total GVWR including towing capacity is 25500 lbs from factory, however I think I have raised it to around 27500 lbs and I bet my total weight on pics is just under 26000 lbs.
Oh yea and curb weight by Fleetwood says its 17500lbs.
:C
There are people who think if you exceed the listed weight capacity by 3 pounds that the earth will end and your motorhome will kill everybody on the highway.
