Recently camping last week in NC my neighbor noticed that my underbelly was sagging quite badly. Not being able to see what was going on I decided to wait until I got home some 600 miles away. While traveling north on Route 81 a passerby started letting me know something was going on under the TT. The sagging was much worse than when I left. Fingers crossed I limped home the remaining 200+ miles to PA.
At home I had to cut open the underbelly material only to find that the black tank was indeed falling down and was separated from it's holding brackets which in my opinion is a very poor design. No straps are used for reinforcement, only 2 1" or so angle iron bars, one on each side holding it in place. I had a very difficult time emptying the tank and I now know why as the tank was leaning towards the side that had fallen and the contents were not able to exit from the other side.
Has anyone ever had this happen and can this be something that may able to be fixed at home?
