The job is really not that bad.

WOW, those ramps look great!! with this project coming up this spring, I may shamelessly copy your design. Are those 2x12????
I appreciate your thought that this job is really not that bad..... Right now, looking at it, it looks like a MONSTER to me. But this RV has been plaqued with power loss problems since 2007 and it has finally been traced down to the tanks and or hoses above. ITS A LONG STORY, and has to do with the PO, work that was done on the coach and just fixing what had never been fixed by the PO...
I am thrilled to be at this point, I can go 55 mph now, USING THE GMC's FUEL TANKS!!!!!! it no longer sits in the yard.
Now another trait of the ORIGINAL problem was that as you drove down the highway, your max speed would slowly degrade. When I left upper Wisconsin I had a max speed of 55 but by the time I got to Milwaukee, I couldn't get over 35. I was trying to pick up speed going down the hills just to make it over the next.....lol... Wasn't funnya then but...
For anyone trying to contemplate what may have been happening, The gas was clean, the filters were checked and all clean, we did a flow test that seemed correct. Nothing popped out at us as a problem. We've come a long way since.
So now, I want to drive it to see if it maintains the 55 max speed. BUT all in all this Spring when the tanks are dropped will tell it all. It is the last step of this nightmare.
Thanks all...
