Adjustable Tensioning Pulley for Goshen Lift Systems

This is the replacement Adjustable Pulley Assembly for pop-up campers with a single-cable Goshen lift system. This pulley's primary and most important job is to set and maintain the proper tension on the main lift cable, ensuring a responsive and synchronized lift.

If your lift cable feels slack, or if there is a "dead spot" of free play in the crank handle before the roof begins to lift, it's often a sign that the tensioning pulley needs adjustment or replacement. A seized or wobbly pulley wheel can also cause a grinding noise and will quickly shred a new cable. This complete assembly restores proper tension and smooth, low-friction operation.

Key Features:

  • Maintains Proper Cable Tension: The adjustable bracket is essential for the performance of the single-cable system.
  • Protects Your Cable: A smooth, free-spinning pulley wheel prevents cable fraying and wear.
  • Direct Replacement: Engineered to fit the Goshen lift system.
  • Complete Assembly: Includes the pulley wheel, axle, and adjustable mounting bracket.

Commonly Found on Campers With Goshen Systems (Reference Only):

While you should always verify the part visually, this pulley assembly is used on a wide variety of campers from brands such as:

  • Camplite / Damon (Since 1993)
  • Dutchmen (1993-2003)
  • Forest River (Since 1993)
  • Palomino (Since 1987)
  • Rockwood / Flagstaff (Some models since 1994)
  • Skamper (Since 1977)
  • Starcraft (1993-2008)

  • Sylvan Sport (Since 2008)
  • Van American / Cobra (1989-1990)
  • Viking (1995-2012, 2018-Current)

Installation Tip: When replacing your main lift cable, it is the perfect time to inspect this pulley. If the wheel does not spin freely or feels rough, we highly recommend replacing it to protect your new cable from premature damage.

Adjustment: Goshen Reversing (Adjustable) Pulley

Safety: Support the roof securely before servicing any lift component, and level the camper before operating.

  1. The adjustable pulley on the rear crossmember sets front/rear roof height.
  2. To raise the front of the roof, adjust the pulley forward; to raise the rear, adjust the pulley back.
  3. After replacing a main cable or springs, cycle the roof and re-adjust the pulley if the front and back do not rise evenly.
