I just bought a used Starcraft trailer..just wondering how the support poles are supposed to be mounted? If anyone has a picture or diagram I would appreciate it.

Are you talking about the support poles for the bunk ends?

The support poles should be permanently mounted under the beds. Pull the bed out, have someone hold it up while you look under it. It should have a clip of some sort holding one end in place. Pull the pole out of the clip and look on frame for a place the pole hooks or slides into.
Hope this helps.....

I have the support poles. One looks like a small roll bar off a truck to discribe it. I see the slots in the frame and such. I figure it should be a easy process I just am not seeing how right now. Anybody have this piticular trailer? Thanks Roy

If your Starcraft is similar to mine, your "roll bar" should have tabs at the ends. They fit into slots on the inside of the box edge. The hinged poles fit into the innermost holes on the side of the tongue. This is attached before the bed is slid out.
The other end probably has two poles with a hinged pole on each. Tabs in slots, same as front, hinged poles fit into slots on trailer frame, each side of spare tire.

IF there is a way to post clear pics I would greatly appreciate it. Yes I have all of those support bars! Couple more questions, how do I operate the heater and fridge. I know...should have had these things shown to me, just was to excited to be getting a pop up. Thanks to all that have responded Roy
