Cool What the heck is this for?????

Good day, hope someone can tell me what the item pictured is for. I have looked through the manual to no avail, looks like it could/should hold something.

This is on the door side of our 2304KS Minilite.

Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on the purpose of this mount.

Looks like the TV mount in our TT. The entire swing arm that is bolted to your tv can be moved outside. Bet you have a cable / antenna hookup right below.

Did you buy new and never had a PDI? If they didn't show you all the points of your TT, then shame on them. My PDI was 3 hours.

no guessing about it,....... as has been said by others, it IS the outside mount for your tv, ... allows you to set the tv outside, draw a crowd, and entertain on game day or movie night.....you'll have a cable connection and power outlet somewhere below it,........ popcorn anyone............

I did have a very good walk through, but it was pouring rain that day and mostly done from inside the trailer. don't remember this item being gone over as the items outside where done in rather a hurry as we were getting soaked.

I have the same mount on my TT. Wish I could find the mount that corresponds to it so I could leave my inside TV in its place and use another for the outside. Any ideas?

Find another swing arm and mod the way it mounts so it fits.

Thanks, that's what I'm looking for. At least it's a place to start.

I have the same bracket on my Flagstaff. Dealer said they could order me one from FR for about $30. Did not push it as my unit has a out side shelf bracket next to the tv outlet. 16 inch shelf came with unit. My issues are the coax outlet and 110 are barely under the extended awning. No watchey tv outside it there is a light rain!

That is for hanging your T V set outside the tv with the bracket can be uncoupled from the extension inside and hung outside. You will find the cable connection and electric outlet nearby. In our case (2304KS) they are next to the gasoline for the grill.

Smile outside tv mount

We have this on our 2017 Rockwood TT and you will need the following part and the only place I could find it was direct from the manufacture.

https://shop.ramco-eng.com/collections/moview-mounts


RAMCO Engineering is out of Elkhart, IN They make mirrors and other stuff for buses and RV's

Part number MQS220 Price was $25 and shipping of $17 but it is worth it. This has the attachment that will fit the back of the TV and also the same part as pictured ( total of two pieces) since our bedroom did not have the mount on the wall on our Rockwood but had the cable their for it we needed both pieces. Now we have two TV's. This is a lot easier that taking the TV out oft of the main living area. Hope this helps you

And annoy the heck out of all the other campers who go camping for the peace and quiet.
