Custom Chassis
Did you know each floorplan in the Alpenlite Defender line has a custom chassis specifically engineered for it? This precision engineering ensures your Alpenlite Defender is more than strong enough to do the job without carrying unnecessary weight to hamper its road manners.

	1) Spare Tire Hoist - Mounted in the frame rails for strength and protection from the elements.
	2 ) Outboard-Mounted Landing Gear - Wide stance is stable and strong and provides convenient access to the leg pins. Standard equipment dual motors offer fast, easy leveling.
	3) Welded LPG Tray - Strong enough to accomodate aftermarket 10 gallon tanks, and with enough space above to fit them.
	4 & 5) Bolt-through Outriggers - Bolting the floor to the chassis strengthens both the coachwork and the chassis. A classic example where 1+1=3!
	6) Lippert® Deep Tread High Rise Steps with Custom Outriggers - We Combined Alpenlite’s custom mounting outriggers with a low telescoping, deep tread step to make getting in and out of your Defender easy.
	7) Truss-Style Girders in Main Living Area. Truss-style girders provide maximum strength with minimum weight.
	8) New Drop-Chassis Design - Provides 120 cubic feet of storage space under the sleeper and accommodates the new fully-extendable sliding storage tray.
	9) Optimum Holding Tank Placement - Mounted low in the chassis and grouped between the axles and hitch, this “low polar-moment of inertia” design minimizes the tanks’ effect on handling; empty or full.
	10) Fully Adjustable Lippert Electric Slide System - Full-width steel mounting tube ensures smooth, long-lasting operation for many years to come.
	11) Wiring Harness - Designed to provide a lifetime of trouble-free service, each frame pass-through is fully grommeted and vinyl coated clips are employed.
	12) Outboard Mounted Shocks - Provide a smoother, more stable, more controlled ride.
	13) Adjustable Spring Hangers - Tailor your ride-height to your tow vehicle’s.
