My STARCRAFT 14RT POPUP has two roof support metal pieces that slips in between the roof and the hard wall of the trailer to keep the roof from falling down after it has be cranked up. I have these support pieces in place in the two opposite corners of the trailer roof. My roof has an air conditoner mounted on it and that would really come down in a hurry if the cable or ratchet broke.
The two support pieces also allows you to bring the roof down tight and remove any pressure on the crank cable or ratchet when the roof has been cranked up. These support pieces could be made up from unistrut PVC or metal type material from lowes. My two pieces slips over the metal raise assy that is on the four corners of the roof.
I am always very cautious of my roof setup. Could hurt my nose big time sleeping under it when fell down.
