2007 Weekend Warrior 3505 5th wheel. It's 36 feet long head to tail. Triple 6k axles with class E light truck tires 6,000 lb cargo capacity, 5000 lb ramp. 17' x 8' garage. It's loaded.

5,000 lb tiedowns. I specifically looked for one with no slide out to save on weight. I was gonna go for one with the same specs but 34' long with the 15ft garage but then that one was in Idaho and this one showed up in Richland.


Here's what it looks like with the Jeep out.

Motorhome brakes don't like to be changed! This is becoming more of a project!

Replacing rear discs is a little bit harder than most vehicles.

Make sure you pack the bearings in grease when you go back together. It takes a long time for the year oil to work it's way to the inner bearing.
