Lessee, I was saying the same thing, what, 5 years ago...at least? Even if the factory sees bad welds, they should FIX THEM before building an RV on that frame. Deduct the costs from their Lippert bill. If they wanted to be nice, the mfr could reference the s/n of the particular frames with issue so that Lippert could trace back to the welders who did the work. 'Course those guys were probably gone after a few months anyway...

No need to wait for Jayco.

This is a quote directly from their website:

"Jayco builds on custom-sized frames, designed specifically for each floorplan (sic). Other manufacturers use stock frames, stretching and welding the frame to fit.

DRV can even have Lippert make a frame to the customers needs. I requested heavier gauge steel in order to carry a motorcycle and was able to get it installed.

Uh, yea, DRV is a DRV spec'd frame, Lippert built. There is a difference in a Lippert stock frame used by a manufacturer and the DRV spec'd 15" box frame built by Lippert. I believe Redwood and Cedar Creek use stock frames.


Cedar Creek doesn't use a stock frame (I used the word standard in place of stock in op) CC has 2" box added to it's I beam. Like the last list that I had "Hung Walls" I will e-mail to verify. So right now

1)DRV
2)Cedar Creek

Full timing isn't "always camping". It's a different life style living in an RV.
