Floor question on '79 Sov

Ok, so I understand that in the 70's some weight savings cuts were made.. I am just about ready to scab in the replacement areas that were rotted out in the bedroom.. and found my subfloor material is for sure 1/2 inch thick. I don't see anyway to change to 3/4, without removing the shell, which, well, I do not want to do. the subfloor is exposed thru the whole trailer, and there is no spot where there apears to be a change, so it must have come that way.

any thoughts?any advice beyond buying the best 1/2" plywood I can get?

I know where to get high quality real 7 ply 1/2" birch ply, no problem there, just seems weird, you know?

Mark
