Heads up everyone about a serious TrailManor problems to check for. On my 2022 3124KB, new in June of this year, the front camper shell had fallen so it was sitting too low to swing the door side frames into place. I discovered that ALL of the bolts holding the six support arm brackets to the frame were loose, and the bolts in the support bracket by the door had unscrewed far enough that the left side of the bracket was hanging 1/2" below the frame! All of the bolts on the other five brackets were over one full turn loose, and many bolts were two or more turns loose. Also, one of the shell height adjustment bolts that adjusts the height of the open end of the shells was able to turn with no resistance, so it would not hold its adjustment. I added three layers of Teflon tape to the bolt threads to solve this. These bolts are located at the tops of the support arms near the top pivot point, and can only be adjusted with that shell down. The pivot points in the open end of the shell's support arms have a slot instead of a hole, and the back end of these bolts push up on the shells when the shells are in the raised position, so unscrew the bolt to raise the shell. The front shell needs to be the correct height to properly mate with the pivoting door frames, and the rear shell needs to be the correct height to seal properly with the front shell. After tightening the bolts and properly adjusting everything, the shells open and close much easier. Feel free to contact me if you are having similar problems.
