    Hydraulic lift added to frame?

    Hi Fred. I would also like to add a lift kit for a scooter. Can you tell me where you went to get the work done and do you know how they figured how much weight the frame could handle. Thanks D

    Hydraulic lift added to frame?

    Does anyone know why adding anything on the back of the trailer voids the warrenty? I know of many other 5th manufactures that put a hitch on the trailer at the factory. What is so different with our frame that we cannot do it without voiding the warrenty?

    GVW vs. axels

    We have a 3/4 ton .. 2500 GMC Durmax. I thought our max carrying cap. of truck was around 1600 lbs. Sounds like we would have to much weight in the bed of truck. We were considering air-bags but don't know if that would help with the weight carrying cap. of the truck.... any thoughts....

    GVW vs. axels

    My GVW states 14000 lbs but my axels say 6000 lbs each which equals only 12000 lbs. Are these axels up to the 14000 lbs weight? What is the actual carrying capacity of the frame?
