[VAC] Re: 1972 Overlander Beatrice issues



Jack,

I'm sure that Charlie Burke can give you a more authoritative answer, but to
the best of my understanding the vast majority of "sag" cases were found on
the 31 foot models after the introduction of a wash water (gray) holding
tank in the rear bath models. If the trailer is towed over rough roads with
full gray and black tanks the frame tended to bend slightly. The fix was a
bolt on frame stiffner that attached to the frame just behind the wheels.
