I have the B&W companion hitch and attaches where your turn over ball does. When you take it out just put your ball back in place and you have a flat bed. It is a very solid and dependable hitch.

"Classic" indeed. Yes, I've noticed that the 3725 is now listed as "dealer stock only" so it's apparently out of production. Too bad, it's such a nice floor plan, it got us to change from the 3400 we had. I wonder how many others out there bought a 3725? New poll??

I had the selling dealer raise the front jacks up into the last bolt hole before leaving their yard account one of them touched the ground trying to get out of their yard.

After getting it home and looking at the 5" of ground clearance on level concrete we drilled additional holes in the cylinder frame (extended the line of bolt holes) and moved them up to get almost 8" of clearance. They did not ever hit the ground on a 2,600 mile trip and I worried less about them. A hard ground strike would certainly do damage and we all know that the world is not flat and there are many places one goes that will encounter a sharp rise or dip in the roadway. Keystone would do well to address this issue.

First of all Welcome to the MOC family.

I have always though the front landing gear pads were fairly low to the ground compared to any other 5er we have had. Not that we have had any clearance problems thus far, I was curious about you post:

"The landing gear cylinders were raised more than four inches to get ground clearance."

Is this something that many others have done???

Thanks for the measurements and insight. I will have to get hooked on and see how much ground clearance we have. It is certainly LESS than any previous Montana that of course didn't have the level up.

The 3725 has been updated to the new 3720. Front is pretty much the same but changes to the living area.
