I have a 2004 New Vision Sportster that I've owned for 2 years. A crack has formed on the outside wall from the bedroom slide. The crack opens up when all the weight is on the 5th wheel and relaxes back to near normal when the weight is on the landing gear. I've removed all the tin work from underneath the over hang as well as the siding in front of the generator and LP compartments. The 5th wheel pin moves 2" before the weigh is removed from the landing gear. I thought that I would find a cracked weld, twisted tubing, or metal tearing. But I can't see where the flexing is taking place, much less what needs to be reinforced. According to KZ the frame was made by Leland, who is now owned by Lippert. Neither was any help. Anyone else heard of anything like this or know what to reinforce?
