[quote source="/post/2394/thread" timestamp="1407469449" author="@nmken"]One more dimension if one of you that has a 16' trailer with the offroad axle - my ball base is at 19" and I'm wondering if that is the right height for a level tow.  Thanks again for helping us get the order going[/quote]You'll probably be pretty close if the height is the same as the 21' models. I don't have the exact number on mine, but I think I remember it being in the low 20's. What is your tow vehicle? Will you being using a WDH? Those will determine how much your rear end drops once you connect the trailer. If you've got a mushy suspension it might drop 3" and be too low. Being slightly tongue down is more stable than slightly tongue up though.

I've got yet another dimensions question for someone that has a camplite with the extended rear deck.  I'm trying to figure if I have room for both a large cooler and a box for the Honda 2000 on the back - it would need to be at least 65 inches long and 18 inches deep.  Can someone measure their deck and let me know how large it is?

Thanks

Thanks[/quote][font size="3"]The "standard" deck is about 63"x20". However, my conversations with the factory indicate those dimensions are customizable. There are enough options and customizations to consider a custom factory order. That way you get it your way. LL has been very accommodating to their customers.

thanks - I can make those dimensions work, just hang the cooler off the edge a couple of inches.  Is there a secret to contacting Livinlite?  I've called their sales line a couple times, left a message but never gotten a response.

Try the warranty desk. Don is pretty good at answering his phone and can direct you.
