thats prob why fleetwood contacted me this morn and offered to pay 1700$ of the3400$ repair bill. Still fighting !! P.S I also know of two other 05 335 gearboxes one in MN that had the front frame break and push pin box up into bed room the other is in CA the MN gearbox also has the walls falling like mine.Lippert sent a new front frame assy and pinbox to the dealer and A worker from the factory came to MN and welded it into place now his walls are saging like mine

I am seriously considering getting rid of this trailer and purchasing something that does not have a Lippert frame.
Komfort has the same floor plan I have now and I was wondering if anyone knows who manufactu8res the Komfort frames.
Thanks!
Since this old thread got brought up and hyjacked, I got to wondering what javaseuf came up with.

One other thing to consider is who and what did they do to the TT with frame problems?Did you ever notice how one persons cars or trucks are always falling apart or having mechanical issues and the same brand or model goes 100,000+ with no issues?Some people just beat the snot out of everything they have and it gives them problems and they wonder why.Now don't take that as all problems are the owners fault,but as a welder,chassis builder and rear differential shop and mechanic of over 35yrs.you can't imagine what some people do with there vehicles!!!(Especially while they are on that d&$ cell phone,I was also an insurance adjuster!)

Mine is labeled; I think it is on the manufacturer's identification tag. (I'll check tomorrow to be certain.)

I got bit with a ultralight product based on a lippert frame(bent tounge). Chose the Arctic Fox as my next trailer partially based on the fact that they make there own frames in house.

Nope, I was wrong about that. A quick look didn't find it stamped on the frame itself, or on the manufacturer's label. If the weather was better I'd do a more thorough search, but it's a cold, wet and windy morning here.
In the large envelope of literature that came with the trailer, I do have a pamphlet about my Lippert slide-out frame and mechanism, so that must be what put it in my brain. I am making an assumption that the slide-out frame and main frame probably come from the same company.
