Default Roadtrek generator support

I’m installing an Onan RV QG 2800 into my my 2006 Chevy Roadtrek 210 Versatile which has never had a generator installed. . Standard Cummins Onan generator under floor mounts will absolutely not work in my RT. I looked at another RT that has a genset installed and the RT mount is clearly a custom mounting system that RT designed and used. Now the obvious question is how do I find one ? Please let me know if you have any ideas where to find one?

The chances of finding one seem pretty slim. Make a paper pattern with some dimensions and take it to a machine shop.

A welding shop could probably tell you where to get it fabricated.

I assume the picture of the generator and bracket is what you need? Certainly not the standard bracket from Onan.

try to make space between genny and differential for a sway bar - just in case you want to add one- my pleasure way has the genny too close.


also suggest a petcock on the fuel line- I can reach mine in front of LR tire- also add a filter and external pump- much easier to service if these are outside the box.


here is a pic I happen to have of a diagonal brace on the driver side taken from rear of van ( 2005 express 3500):
