Frame issue

Has it been in a front end collision? Could it be severely misaligned? What leads you to believe it's the frame?

Not front end, behind the axle passenger side. Had a small crack by the window, hit a major dip while pulling a trailer now the crack is about 4’long and there’s 3 of them plus it shattered the window. Only on the paaaenger side. I feel that it has to have some frame issues for this to happen

Dip was bad enough the front tires came off the ground, really bad spot

I,d be calling my insurer, hope it works out.

What is the year and make of your MH? Is the crack in a main wall or slide wall? To me that sounds more like a house structural issue more than a frame issue. I could be wrong.

Friends had a well respected brand that repeatedly cracked at a slide opening. I've seen others of the same make and model with the same issue. Thats why I'm asking about your make and model.

I did get my insurance involved. It’s a 99 Monaco Windsor.

Don't tell me that---I have the same DP pulling a 32ft tri axel enclosed trailer. Mine does have a 10,000lb hitch but something don't sound good for the damage you describe----I see you over on DRR.

Hey Fern. Yeah it was one of those dips you don’t see coming, pulling a 34’ in tech with the same 10000# hitch probably. It was bad, front tires came off the ground and I could feel them shake when they hit the ground .

It is a common problem to overload a Motorhome by pulling a too heavy a trailer. The tow rating is the lesser of the GCWR - actual gross weight of the motorhome or the hitch rating whatever is less. For example if you have a hitch rated at 10k, a GCWR of 30k an actual coach weight of 26k you can only tow a trailer of 4K assuming you reduce the coach weight by 400# to account for the tongue weight. The point is that you cannot exceed any ratings. I have seen people towing double stacker trailers behind motorhomes all the time. However it can cause the frame to break if subjected to an abnormal stress such as a bump or pothole.

I understand what your saying but I believe it has been there since I bought it and now with the highway issue its now a big problem
