Description: |
The original had the galvanized pan extended all the way to the bumper. That wonderful design forced water against the back steel plate and rusted out the entire rear end. My redesigned rear storage box prevents the water from getting to the steel cross member supporting the tanks. I still need to put some weep holes in with aluminum screening, because water will get in the compartment. It is a slow process putting it all together, but I am pleased with the results.
I tucked aluminum flashing up under the trailers skin to prevent water from getting anywhere near the new floor. That will be covered with an aluminum panel to attach the rear hatch cover to. |
