Sub-floor

Well, I'm a couple weeks into the removal of the interior. With a full time job and family it's been tough to find time to spend with "Ruby". Yep we have maned her. I have attached some pics. I'm new to this and have some questions below.

1. My plan is to remove the sub-floor (it needs it in the back bathroom, but the rest seems in very good condition. My thought is to be able to inspect the frame and tanks, before removing the belly pan (that seems to be a tougher job?). By doing this I can spray the frame with Corroseal. Also I could put new insulation in and help get rid of that 46 year old musty smell.

2. Where. Removed the old refriduator, there is a hole in the floor with a screen over it. Is that necessary with a new refriduator. See pic.

3. One of the plastic wheel wells is cracked at the mounting spot to the wall. How do I pair this or is there replacement ones I can buy. See pic.

Sorry pics are up-side down?

Removing and replacing the belly pan is, in my opinion, way easier than working down from above. Sounds like you'll still need to replace sub floor, but you might consider removing the pan first to see what you're up against.

Repair of the plastic wheelwheel will depend upon the type of plastic. Polypropylene is extremely difficult to repair, but others aren't quite so bad. J-B Weld makes at least one formulation for plastic that may work for you.
