Suppliers for RV construction

NOTE ON TRAILER FRAMES: The trailer frames on all Glen-L Trailers, including Fifth Wheel models, are designed for local fabrication by the builder or any welding shop using standard steel members available anywhere. All Glen-L Trailer plans include complete plans and details for both the trailer frame as well as the undercarriage gear so nothing is left to chance. Anyone familiar with welding methods can assemble a Glen-L Trailer frame easily and at a cost savings by using locally purchased materials.



The following is a very incomplete list of RV suppliers. We and our builders would appreciate any additions to this list. We do not "recommend" these suppliers; in most cases we have no personal experience with them. It is always best to shop around and compare.
