Re: [A/S] Trim Removal
My 89 Excella had the same problem. Go to the end of the trim at the wheel
well drill the rivet that holds the trim in place. Take a screw driver pull
up on the end to get it started just keep pulling to the area you want. Make
sure you seal all the little rivets that hold the aluminum molding on. When
you ready to put it back put the bottom edge of the trim into the molding and
start pushing the top in with your finger or screw driver. Also check at the
back bumper storage box between the sewer storage and the trailer. Make sure
you seal in the storage box bottom front and were the bumper meets the
trailer on the top. When I bought my trailer from a friend I was going to
clean up the rust on the back frame so I drop the back pan. It was a
nightmare all the insulation was wet the floor was rotted out in both
corners. Just make sure you seal the top of the bumper between the trailer.
That's were my big problem was in the bumper. But the leak behind the trim
was small but a leak is a leak and can do the same damage but a little
slower. Good Luck
