All the frames are made by LCI (Lippert Components Inc) and none are very 'stout'. In fact, they are all subject to tank sag and possible fallout with no accessory bracing.
Consequently, if yours is a FR product with no added bracing, I'd run with no water or very little because the chance of a 'tank fallout' is pretty great.
Pretty poor construction.. A lippert trademanrk

Not to say that Lippert doesn't have their own problems but the tanks sagging is not Lippert's fault. They don't have any idea which tank the manufacturer is going to use or which models the manufacturer is going to build on the frame. They only supply the frame the manufacturer is ordering built to suit the manufacturers size and weight specifications and other special ordering requests.
Hanging the tanks properly is the responsibility of the manufacturer installing it so it won't sag or fallout. When ordering the frame they need to order with the correct basic tank supports and locations, then adding what other support is needed when installing the tanks.
