Nice write up. I also have a 2002 Classic Slider and have done many of the same upgrades. Have you registered your Slider with the Slide Out Society? Look us up on this forum.

Hey Mike,

I joined two before you. #004 in my signature. Thanks anyway. We have a bunch more to sign up now I guess. We can use the publicity.

Woosch - what a bummer. What did you do in the way of repairs? Any advice on what to watch for in terms of these types of leaks?

It appears that the damage had been there for quite a while. The floor wasn't soft so didn't suspect anything. I had sealed the space between the rub rail and bumper when we first got it in 2010 on the advice of a fellow Airstreamer. The service manager speculated the damage occurred with the previous owner. Airstream sealed the bumper the same way I did after they replaced the floor. I will be investing in some sort of water detectors
