New Zinger 26BH. No problems with it but I was wondering how do you access the slide out motor? The trailer has an enclosed underbelly and see no place to access the motor if needed. Do you need to cut open the underbelly? Seems like a poor design decision.

On my Cruiser there are two areas that have small aluminum frames that mark the motor access areas. The underbelly is not cut yet but the area is marked.

I do have two brackets under the wrap like you describe but I think they're for my water tank. When the tank is full you can see the bulge of the weight between the brackets.

In the general area of the slide look for some panhead screws in the center of the coach. On my previous Cruiser that marked the location of the motor for future access.



Typically they don't provide cut-outs for access on the underbelly.

The slide out motor will be near the main frame rail on the opposite side of the trailer from the SO. Also there should be a hole in the skirting on that same side for the manual crank, so that is the area to look at.

That's where I figured it would be, right by the manual crank. Looks like you still have to remove some of the underbelly to get to it though.
