I just re read this string and apologize for starting a discussion that has already been addressed. This is a cool rig. Love how you pulled all decals. I believe you have your 33 ko2s and upgraded lift and a think suspension. I just installed ko2- 33 . 10.5/ 15s on my trailer. Got 2.5 more " of clearance. I had a rock or branch break my gray valve cap and gray tank pee trap. I know have 19" of clearance and gray cap sits at 14" (lowest hanging fruit) . I use my trailer as a base camp like you but live and camp in high mnts of Utah/ID/MT/WY. So some steep rocky roads for sure. Just curious how low your pluming hangs. Why doesn't anyone that I can think of build a fiberglass trailer with high ground clearance and independent suspension. Also I looked at those Cortz trailers and they are not built like yours. No ground clearance. Less the 10"
Yea Cortes I believe has moved over to a frameless design so that might explain why theirs sit so low. I've never seen one in person up close, just passing by them on the interstate. From the videos I've seen they look like they make a nice trailer though, maybe a touch above Casita, up there with the likes of Escape and Bigfoot.
The axle is by far the lowest part underneath and it sits at 13.25", I believe my clean out tank spouts sit about 3"+ above that but I'll have to get a measurement next week when I pull her out for the Big Bend trip. I am only sitting on 30's but I could easily move up to 32's and gain another inch of clearance.
The trip next week will be the most consecutive nights that my wife will have spent in the camper. I told her when we head home at the weeks end that I want an honest opinion on the trailer from her perspective. Should she desire more room then we might look into moving up to an Escape 21 or 23 or maybe I'll take the chance to finally move up to an Oliver Elite II.
