Re: [VACList] shower pan/holding tank combo
keep it drained before rolling or else, do take the time to put in a
longitudinal frame stiffening kit now while you are "exposed".
that much black and gray adds up to a lot of weight yanking down on the frame
while rolling down the road. Of course, on a mid 70s Sovereign , the tanks
stretch all the way from the rear axle almost back to the bumper on both sides.
That is ABOUT 250# if they were full. = a lot of inertia when the rear of the
trailer is fighting to come up out of a dip, etc. Actually, I would install the
kit on ANY, similar trailer while the frame was available to be clad.
fwiw
