Question:
Hi- Can the backside of my Trailer support brackets for a ladder or does it need to be supported entirely by the rear bumper?
asked by: Mory H
Helpful Expert Reply:
Most RV ladders are actually supported by the rear wall and not the bumper actually. For example, if you take a look at the picture of the # LA-401 that you referenced you can see that it does not attach to a bumper at all and only the rear wall and roof. On the roof you'll need to find where it's reinforced for a ladder. Typically a quick call to the manufacturer will help figure that out.
