Rear Skid Rollers for Seneca

My new 2019 Seneca seems to be really low in the back and I fear it will drag. Am I being paranoid? Has anyone used skid rollers on the rear of their Seneca's?

Unifab 10-4202 is what I purchased from Amazon. Saved me plenty of times!

I welded on an Ultra-Fab 2" roller to my 4" drop receiver hitch which I need to flat tow my vehicles. It does indeed drag on some driveways, and the roller helps in those situations.

When I don't have the drop receiver installed I cannot recall my unit ever dragging. If it did I would likely add Ultra-Fab's bolt on rollers to the crossbar of my hitch.

Here is a link to my roller on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Skid Wheels

I just went through this with my 19 Seneca HJ as well. I have a semi difficult transition going up my driveway and this was one of the reasons we went with a super C as there is no way a class A will make it too our house. I first bought Ultra Fab 6" caster wheels rated for 34' plus rv's. The mount was solid as well as the wheel holders but the wheels themselves were just cheap cast/pot metal. My wife was following me on the phone as I creeped up the driveway transition and she said as soon as they touched they just exploded. I backed down and went back to my shop. I mounted 4 - 3" solid steel and 2 - micro steel Ultra fab wheels for a total of six skid wheels. Ended up being overkill but I go right up and down my driveway no problem now. They touch and roll a little but my fiberglass is protected.[ATTACH][ATTACH]Click image for larger version

Gen tail pipe

I have not yet experienced an issue with the back of the Seneca but nearly ripped off the gen tail pipe trying to back into a place for LP.
