Sorry guys for so many question on this. Looking at placing the dbl iso over the tandems. Not seeing a aluminum band to screw into, is there a way these get fasten. Am I simply not seeing the ban?

He is saying that he doesn’t see a aluminum cross member to screw the doubled up pads over the bogie into.

Yes, correct. Probably tried to shortcut the question there. But yes was wondering if I'm just not seeing the crossband to screw into or if there is another way of attachment such as glueing.

The crossmembers that I am familiar with on a GMC are all bolted in and
they are steel. Same with the side rails. The aluminum under there is sheet
goods next to the plywood floors. No stringers that I can recall.

I don’t have my GMC here to look at but as I recall there is an approximately 3” x 1/4” piece of aluminum beneath the floorboards running across the motorhome by each rubber spacer. I don’t recall one above the bogies so those two rubber spacers are likely just glued in place.

I think he's referring to half dozen structural cross members where the iso pads go. Those are about 3"x 1 1/4" thick I'd guess and made of aluminum as is the rest of the upper superstructure.
