First outing Labor Day 2002 at Top Of Georgia. Everything works that was added...the black and grey water tanks, the air conditioner, the awning. Still have to polish unit about 10 additional hrs. to go all the way around. Then, in the Spring, follow up with more. |

Rear view
|
| Description |
This photo shows the overall effect of having only 2" falling below the rear bumper as opposed to 6". Now the dumpvalve does not drag or scrape and I also have a greywater tank. My son-in-law helped me with this project and it took us approx. 10 hrs. to complete. Hope this is of some help to others. My next project is to add air and to polish this unit. |

Side view of box

| Description |
This shows the box in place after insulation was replaced. The box was held up by screws into the frame and the plate that was added earlier held it up as close as possible. |

Forming the box without a tool to bend the metal was accomplished by making small cut along the line, later, these cuts are filled with sealant. |

Measurements for the box
|
| Description |
The box would at its lowest point from the belly be only 5" but this was 26" from the rear and would taper off to 2" at the rear to give ground clearance. |

A flat plate was welded to the crossmember so the belly(box) would ride as high as possible. |
