Jayco Eagle DIY Rear Storage Platform

Pic of Platform

Never been fond how most aftermarket storage units flex and rotate on bumpy roads--especially when the load is not balanced.

I took a larger platform I fabricated for under chassis storage on a toy hauler (since sold) and cut it down to fit our Jayco Eagle travel trailer. It's very stable. I can place a 100+ lb. generator on the far left or right with no stability issues.

There are two supports that are used to attach the ends of the OEM receiver assembly to the frame on the 2018 Jayco Eagle travel trailers. A 1 1/2" square tube will fit inside these supports. These supports just happen to be positioned so that when the 1 1/2" square tubes are inserted, they line up with the ends of this flat 24x67 platform almost perfectly.
