Fuchs on my travel trailer.....

I traded for a Jayco tent trailer. Thing has those crappy 10 inch wheels and is lower than a TJ 63 Chebby Impala. Two of the three tires have suspect sidewalls and I can't tell which decade there were made.

Lifted the body 6 inches, ordered some 4x4inch to 5x130mm adapters (it's not a race car, so chill), gonna drag it behind my Yukon or the 911.

Overall lift will be 9 inches..... Cost including the adapters was under $200. I had the Fuchs just sitting and the steel was scrap from the pile.

No more speed bump, drive way or dirt road scrapes.....using a 15x6 with a 195/50 tire. Offset was 1.5 inch different which the spacer will correct.....
