I saw the post and their response. I did get another email last Saturday from one of my contacts at BRX. I'm well into fixing everything myself so that is the focus going forward. I'm thinking the Yakima towers are the better way to go also. They would also allow space for airflow into the AC...

Nothing. I sent a second follow-up e-mail mail the weekend before last and never got a reply to it as well.

Here are a couple of progress pics. I removed the left side wall and cut the new piece this weekend. All of the bolts and screws were fairly easy to remove, but the front of the wall was secured by staples. It took a while to pry off the front and expose the staples so I could cut and pull them...

Good question. The unit I am planning on going with is the Dometic Penguin II 13.5K AC/Heat Pump. Given the height of either of the 2 racks above there will be space for airflow between the AC unit and the bottom of the tent. I'll have to take a look at the manual for the AC unit to see if it...

So after searching around today I have options that should work well. Back to the bar-style mount (truck bed) instead of the basket. Yakima OutPost HD 13" high, cross bars 60" (exact width of the trailer) and 300 lbs load capacity off-road. Downside is that once you buy all the pieces...

Yes, and I admit I am probably looking for a unicorn unless I make it myself. I had the tent on the bar-style mount before but it was just too heavy (170 lbs) of a load. I had to replace 3 of the 4 bar mounts because they broke. If I can find a bar-style mount with a sufficient weight capacity...

Thanks. It's definitely frustrating with the condition it is in. The upside is that it will probably be stronger than when it was new once all the repairs are done.

+ @Ozarker I wish I could fab up one on my own but I don't have a welder or many metalworking tools. That would be the ideal solution given my requirements. So to clarify the question, I have the same model BRX trailer as the photo in my post. The new model trailers come with that rack. My 2...

So I have narrowed it down to 2 units, haven't made a final decision yet. Dometic Penguin II 13.5 k - 29" deep, 40.5" wide, 11.25" high Dometic RTX 1000 - 25.3" deep, 33.8" wide, 12.1" high

Does anyone know who makes a roof rack / cargo basket similar to this one? I am looking for one that is about 11" high (if a commercially made one exists) to accommodate a Dometic roof top AC unit.

Latest update - so it's been over 2 weeks since I talked to the guy at BRX. Despite following up a week later, he has not called back or replied to my e-mail. So that's that, time to move on. I removed the roof last weekend and the left side panel. The left side wall is totally rotted out and...

So I have a couple of updates... I spoke with a guy at BRX this week and he is going to follow up with their shop manager to see what they can do to help. I'll post an update on that when he gets back to me, hopefully next week. I got a ballpark quote to fix the roof from a local RV repair...

I have a feeling that exact photo is what happened multiple times. I should include it as an exhibit in my rental agreement (which already does have an explicit damage clause). No news yet - hopefully by the end of the week I will have a good update to share.

Appreciate it. Hopefully the guys at BRX can fit it in and get it fixed right.

Hopefully so. Stay tuned - I'll post an update once I talk with the person at BRX.

+ @BuckinghamBuilt Yes, that is who I bought it from but that specific picture isn't my rig. It is the same model, different roof rack, tent and wheels. It was a rental and I have a rental business in GA as well. In an interesting turn of events I actually got an e-mail from my contact at BRX...

@DFNDER @Obsessed2findARuggedHybid @BuckinghamBuilt I bought it used. I suspect it was actually stored outside and not covered most of the time. I have been in communication with BRX but so far haven't got an answer if they can fix it. I know it's out of warranty and I am willing to pay, I...

There is a one year frame and body warranty. I wish it was under warranty still!

I have a 2018 BRX Expedition trailer and the plywood sheet that is underneath the exterior of the roof is rotting out and needs to be replaced. I am trying to decide if I want to do this repair job myself so I pulled back a section of the exterior molding to try and determine if the roof just...
