2008 Dutchmen T@B CS - Looking for Tongue Box and Spare Tire mounting suggestions

odessa13

All,

Fairly new to this forum and looking for any guidance on addressing two items

- Would love to add some storage capabilities via tongue box.  One key challenge is that I already have a propane tank there.
- Would love to move spare tire from underneath the camper and mount it on the tongue.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure that the Dutchman CS sits a little bit further forward on the frame that the inside kitchen T@B, so whatever suggestions you receive, be sure to measure carefully before spending any money.

Delta 415002 Tongue Box with the spare tire bracket from the bottom of the trailer installed on the side.  10# and 5# LPG, 30A cord, hose, BAL Lever, tools, blocks, chocks....inside.  Mounted on the front of a 2009 CS.

rfuss928.  Thanks!  That looks exactly like my tongue and almost what I was thinking.  Out of curiosity, have you tried to find something a bit wider.  Maybe like a platform that then hosts this box in the center along with Tire on one side, but gives option to put additional stuff on the other side?

Something like this.  Can't seem to find part number or specs...

You will probably need to have something like that custom made.  Be careful, the front tongue frame on a DM TaB is not designed to hold a lot of weight.
cheers.
