The seems on the can where the truck frame and RV frame come together were needing additional support and in my case support as there was no attempt from side to side swaying on the vertical seems. I had to bolt through the vertical seems with bolts and a piece of metal. Construction had to be done and done by me since I bought the coach used. I also had to reinforce the water tank as it was just sitting on plastic. This plastic was sitting on top of the wiring harness for the truck. It was also sitting on the propane line for the water heater. Could have resulted in a fire. Again since I bought the coach used and dealership told me to go pound sand.
