BAL Hide-A-Spare for Imagine 2400BH
I have an Imagine 2400BH on order and want to add a BAL Hide-A-Spare when it arrives. I have seen threads posted for the 2800BH that indicate the BAL 28218 (for I-beam style frames and enclosed underbelly) is appropriate. I am assuming the 2400BH (and probably all Imagines) are the same I-beam construction, but can anyone confirm?
Also, I know I will need to take a peak under the insulation/belly cover to be sure I'm not drilling into electrical, LP lines or tanks, but can anyone comment on whether a rear position, just forward of the rear jacks, is likely to work out?
Thanks!
Matt

On our 2650 there is a 2" square tube welded under the frame that extends past the rear axle. I used the Hide a Spare for a "C" channel frame and attached it to the square tubing with two 3/8" self tapping bolts on each side. I didn't have to drop the coroplast on the installation.

Jmbopp, thanks for the input.
I found an owner video on youtube with a good view of the underside. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUSjnOr6NFo&t=615s At 8 1/2 minutes you can see the driver side clearly and that square tube under the frame stops about 18-24 inches behind the axles.

I mounted it close to the rear axle, and haven't had any issues so far.
