    Chevy chassis 3500 or 4500?

    Dumb question...I forgot to ask the dealer when I bought it. I've got a new 2301, it's a 2015 built on a 2014 Chevy chassis. There are no emblems,stickers or anything else that I can see on the Chevy part of the camper that indicates if it's a 3500 or 4500 series. I'm assuming it's a 4500 as...

    I've got about 20,000 miles on my '12 Sanibel 3500 and it needs new shocks. I've found regular replacements-Lippert heavy duty shocks- but they don't seem to be all that heavy duty to me. Has anyone found a heavier duty shock than Lippert installed at the factory?? Ken

    Hi all, first post and thread. I was wondering if this would make a big difference since the trailer is large and has three pull downs and it can get hot in the summer. Will the 13500 BTU keep the trailer cool when it 90-100 outside? Thanks, Tom
