For many years Peterson Industries of Smith Center Kansas has built the nations top rated fifth wheel trailer. Part of their success is because they design and build one of the best frames in the industry, right in their own plant. I'm not sure if they buy any other components from Lippert...TJ

My HH trailer was built on a Lippert frame and so far no problems. I Usually have a local rv shop do all of my major maintenance. I slid under the trailer and looked at the spring hangers after several post on this forum. I was shocked at the quality of the welds. Hope they hold.
