Default Re: Rv towing question about rear overhang.

Danny

That's good information. Also the better that ratio the better chance that the motorhome will be full frame to the hitch.

The more overhang the more likely there is a scabbed on frame extension which takes a fair bit of beefing up to make sure the motorhome doesn't flex and de-lam

For example I just sold a 31' motorhome on a chev P 30 chassis (1999). Factory frame to the bumper. 33' and above had a scabbed on version which would have been a pain to reinforce

Bought a 34' Workhorse W22 and same thing full frame to back. If you can find a motorhome on the shorter length of the chassis its placed on there is a better chance it will have a stronger frame bumper to bumper and no extensions
