  • Lippert Ground Control TT

    Has anyone had issues with installing these on an Imagine 2600RB? Dealership is telling me there is a ground clearance issue on the front jacks due to the drop box pass through on the front of the trailer.

    I don't know of anyone that's installed the Ground Control system on an Imagine. The issue in most cases is payload. Not sure how new the trailer is to you, but it is surprising how fast and easy it is to overload a trailer. (There are notable exceptions to this "norm", but the way my DW and I pack we're in that group.)

    Payload, to be clear, is how much "stuff" you can add in or on the camper before reaching the unit's GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). That's on a sticker, front (street side) of the camper.

    As you can see in my signature I have a 315RLTS. A set of Anderson levelers and the LevelMatePro make it super easy and fast to get the camper level. I will admit it's frustrating to not be able to tweak the side-to-side level after a few days (when the camper settles) but it's usually only a small amount.

      howson Carry a bottle jack and be prepared to crawl under the unit if needed to jack up one axle at a time to adjust the level. I do that at the hunting lease when things move. I jacked the TT up over 6" total b/c I did not like the way I had to dig the tires down to get it level. So I ended up blocking both sides up so the tires would not be sitting below the dirt surface which could lead to structural issues in the tires (rusting of the chords in the side and tread).

        I could have sworn one of the Youtubers I follow had a Imagine added ground control TT, but I can only find Reflections:

        I can't imagine there is a ground clearance issue, it's a pretty standard frame height.
