Brand new member..HELLO EVERYONE…I just bought a used 179 r-pod..a 2015…and I need to fab up some outer supports for the floor….the issue I am having is that the trailer is in upstate N.Y and I live in Maine…does anybody know of the distance of the overhang from the frame to the outer edge of the wall…when I bought it last week I did not know of the issue. .and thus I did not take this measurement I really would like to apply these out tiggers before I make the 8 hour trip back to northern Maine..
I hope I posted this in the right place…kind of difficult for me to get use of this site…but eorking on it.. Thanks

Take a look at this link for installation of outriggers by John Marucci. He mentions they can be purchased from Forest Riverhttps://johnmarucci.com/2021/11/22/r-pod-rv-outrigger-installation/
The other resource by John is this list of materials which includes a contact email at Forest River. https://johnmarucci.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/R-Pod-Outrigger-Installation-1.pdf Wish you the best on your repair!

Thanks for the information..I decided to cut out my own…I used 2”x 4” x 1/8” rectangular tubing..the length of the surface that is against the floor which I needed is 7” long…it is shaped like a right triangle.. the cost was $48 for the metal…my son is a welder..so I saved a ton of money.. I decided to use 10 units on my 2015 R POD 179 m
