Another thought, just don't understand why there would be water problems. Does it not occur to QA Inspectors that a system check would reveal a problem. Maybe that position doesn't exist any more. LOL

Thanks, I'm calling dealer in a minute to advise what you said if they have not come up with a solution. My husband was afraid they were going to have to dismantle the shower stall. Honestly, the last three campers we have owned have always had some type of water issue.

That leak sounds like it is from the black tank flush check valve under the sink in the bathroom. Mine was installed wrong at the factory, as well. JayPod

Definitely will share sewer hose mod with hubby. Elnjoyed seeing all the mods. Right now Jim has it on the tongue behind battery but under the tongue. Our spare is mounted on the tongue on one side. Where did you find those corner shelves? I spent last week looking at that space wondering what I could do. I guess someone is sleeping in the top bunk. I would love to start using it and keep my dinette up. Just not sure I could manage it. How do you get up there? Our camper is currently back with dealer as of Monday due to trim on dinette was coming off. Can't help but think putting it up and down may have caused that problem. And what's with the screens on windows in bunk area? They were just standing in the track and we have never opened those windows. Taking it back to dealer, told hubby, let dealer install them. It's like one has to flex to install and I was not going there, if you know what I mean. The other problem was Jim went to rinse walls in black tank and clean water started weeping in on kitchen floor along the shower stall wall. Any thoughts? I had him turn it off so not even a cup of water came inside. None in tub or around toilet.

I will take some photo tomorrow and post it here. It was a great idea to move the tire to the tongue because i was able to mount all 4 of my bicycles.

Very cool. We have an 80 watt Zamp that we use. I'd like to see detailed pictures of the spare tire carrier. That would free up the back for a smoker carrier....

As far as the tire carrier, I built a new mount for the tire, the tire can swing to the front using a pin so you can remove the gas tank upward.

The bracket on the tongue is for my Goal Zero solar panel, I have a 4 Boulder solar panel that I can connect together, each panel has a 30 watts output.
