> Our coach has the usual "middle age spread" where the door doesn't fit so well anymore sicne the
> walls have flexed outward. However, we've noticed another problem: the floor bows upward in the middle.
> It's worst in the area that's in front of the door. In a lot of places underneath, there's a sizable
> gap between the plywood floor and the rubber isolator pads, in the middle of the floor but not at the edges.
> We're guessing that the weight of the sagging body on the frame parts that are cantilevered out past the
> subframe has pushed the sides down, and the middle up. This makes the floor pretty springy.
> There doesn't seem to be any frame bending or accident damage that would explain it.

> Has anybody else run into this problem??
