johnmark39 Report post Posted November 28, 2016 Has anyone had an experience with mounting a lift, for instance, Hydralift on a short single axle MH. I have 35' Diesel, with the 10,000 lbs needed capacity between dry and wet weight. Manufacturer (Tiffin) does not recommend. New to motorhoming and I want to bring my motorcycle trike along.

hermanmullins Report post Posted November 28, 2016 John, Welcome to the Forum. Have you joined FMCA. If not come on and join a large family that is ready to adopt you and introduce you to a wonderful group of relatives. As for the bike carrier. Please do as your Coach Manufacturer recommends. They know what is best and safest for you and the coach. Have you considered a trike trailer? Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted November 28, 2016 The problem with all that weight at the extreme back of the coach is its affect on coach weight distribution. Being 10+ feet behind the rear axle, it adds well more than its own weight to the rear axle and removes weight from the front axle. That very negatively affects handling. Both Tiffin and Herman are correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
