I have a '73 TW, and the skin on the bottom is shot. There is also a large squareof angle iron under there, about (guessing) 5 feet square. It is broken, one corner was almost dragging, but it was cought and supported by the propane line when I noticed it, on the way home once. I plan on replacing the large square with stainless steel. I also would like to clean out the potable water tank, as where my trailer was parked (when I bought it) the clean water door was not locked, and kids had poked pinecones, etc. in there. Is the water tank acessible from under the trailer, or will I have to take the floor up also?
Thanks..
