Grand Design Announces All‑New Omega Fifth‑Wheel Frame

Grand Design RV has recently introduced its all‑new Omega Fifth‑Wheel Frame, an upgraded chassis designed to provide RV owners with greater strength, stability, and confidence on the road. This next‑generation frame represents a significant step forward in the construction of Grand Design fifth wheels and reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to quality and continuous improvement.

What Makes the Omega Frame Different?

The Omega Frame incorporates several engineering enhancements and structural reinforcements that go beyond the previous frame design. Key improvements include:

Thicker steel and additional structural materials throughout the frame, designed to better resist flex and stress under real‑world travel conditions.
Reinforced outriggers that provide stronger support for the floor and walls, helping reduce flex and improve long‑term durability.
Larger gussets that add rigidity between the upper deck and chassis and help improve overall frame stability.
Additional crossmembers and floor support tubes in critical areas to help strengthen the chassis and reduce floor flex during travel.
More fasteners, larger lag screws, and added structural adhesive to better secure key connection points and meet or exceed industry standards for structural integrity.
Stronger side plates that support compatibility with a variety of pin box options and further enhance strength and reliability.

These upgrades are designed to help the fifth‑wheel maintain stability on sharp turns, rough terrain, and extended travel, and to give owners confidence that the frame can hold up under everyday use.

Warranty Enhancements

Grand Design is backing the Omega Frame with an industry‑leading, fully transferable 5‑year limited frame warranty. This warranty is retroactive to the original purchase date and can be transferred to subsequent owners during the warranty period, which provides peace of mind for both new and used RV buyers.

This extended warranty program — including 1‑year base, 3‑year structural, and 5‑year frame coverage, all transferable — sets a new standard in the RV industry.

Models Featuring the Omega Frame

The Omega Frame is now standard on several of Grand Design’s most popular fifth‑wheel lines, including:

Reflection
Solitude
Influence
Momentum

This means these models benefit from the upgraded frame design and enhanced structural confidence built into the foundation of the coach.

What This Means for Owners

For current and future owners of Grand Design fifth wheels, the Omega Frame offers:

Greater long‑term durability and stability
Improved resistance to frame flex under load
Enhanced confidence for towing and travel
A strong, transferable warranty for resale value

Grand Design worked with Lippert Components and engineering partners to identify key stress points and build a more resilient frame structure. The upgrades reflect feedback from the RV community and a commitment to continuous improvement.

The introduction of the Omega Fifth‑Wheel Frame represents a foundational improvement in Grand Design’s fifth‑wheel construction.
