Hey All,

On the attached picture you can see the sagging issue I'm having. What is your advice to fix this? There is a little bit of bad wood directly inside the sag, but the wood behind that looks good, so I want to get this sealed up good. Self tapping screws and exterior caulk? Liquid nails, self tapping screws and exterior caulk? Also, as you can see I'm missing my light cover, it hasn't been missing long, but what is the best place to order RV parts in your experience :)? Thanks for any advice you can give me :).

Thanks!

-Scott

Looks to me you have a seriously neglected water leak.  Your going to have to take everything apart, repair the rot squaring things back and reassemble.  There is no quick easy fix.  If tou cant do it yourself then I suggest you pay a professional to do it right.
 
I'm quite certain what happened is it came loose and started sagging. Once that happened some water got in.  Looking at everything I see no sign of a water leak. Water and moisture did get in after the sag started. Thank you for your response.
 
Welcome to the Forum!

Can you provide a wider angle picture.  I am not quite sure what I am looking at.

May need a new door????
 
My guess would be that you have a frame issue under all that.

Unusual for a Nash but not unheard of.
