Question:
I don’t see actual installation dimensions. The vent on the customers dryer is a splendide out the bottom rear of the dryer. Not sure of the installation dimensions with the dryer vent hose and if it can be configured out the back of the dryer don’t have photos but will take some if I need to explain better Thanks

Thanks for reaching out Mark, happy to help!
The installation instructions for the GE Spacemaker Dryer # GE42FR show that the vent location can be changed. GE doesn't provide the exact clearance needed behind the dryer once the vent is installed, that depends on the vent configuration and the type of elbow used.
I've also attached the installation instructions for your reference. They include diagrams and step by step instructions for changing the exhaust orientation to best suit your installation.
What model of Camper/Trailer/RV is the dryer being installed?
