Questions about moving to a 2008 Jayco EXP232
My wife and I are looking at a 2008 Jayco EXP 232. The length is 25ft, width 8ft and dry weight is 4290. Gross weight is 5500. I drive a 98 Suburban K1500. We currently have a 2000 Rockwood Roo 21. Length is 21ft, width is 7.5ft and dry weight is 2700. Gross is around 5000. We like the Jayco but I am concerned about moving up over 4000lbs and adding 4 ft of length. With the Roo, I am using a 2" ball and weight distributing hitch rated up to 10,000 and 1000 tongue weight and an anti sway bar. The Jayco needs a 2 5/16" ball. Am I going to be able to use any of the stuff I already have or am I going to have to buy new/used for the Jayco. Also what changes would I expect with the added weight of the Jayco? My truck has 210,000 miles. Did I say that my wife really likes the Jayco? thanks for any info/advice, Terry 98 Suburban K1500 2000 Roo 21763Views0likes1Comment
