Hey y’all, it’s been a while. I’ve got someone helping fix my leaks. I picked up a Duralast part #221207 seal from AutoZone — does anyone know if it’s the same one Linda found? Also, what is the fifth picture posted? Does anyone know what it’s called, or if it uses the same seal? I might’ve already asked this earlier in the thread.

So, got the super complex next bulkhead cut and it friction fits in place. That feels good:
I need to mark it for holes down low for the wiring, water lines and propane lines to go through. The edge closest to the camera pokes out intentionally. Later the last thing I'll do before glue and screwing it into place is mark a vertical line on that edge from the laser sitting there on a tripod. That's the only reasonable system I've come up with to trim all the structure edges (bulkheads, shelves, etc) so they come up against the front face of this cabinet when I later mount it. I have a bizarre plan to put a rough hole in all the openings, temp mount the face, reach in with a bright light and mirror to mark the openings on the back side, then cut the actual openings. Definitely the strangest "build it in reverse....er, sideways, er..." project I've done in a while.
Below is a straight in view of the fridge mount. On the bottom there is a missing section by the wall. That's going to be a sloped piece of fiberglass actually fiberglassed against the bottom of the bottom opening. The new fridge is a couple inches wider than the opening at bottom, so it will not have a slope the full length of the rear. I'll use something in that corner to guide condensation out the opening. I also have to build a shallow box against the upper wall that will mate with the fridge's top rear edge and funnel hot air from the fridge out the upper opening. Kind of a false wall. Who knew there was so much going on

I think they do help with sway, yes, mostly cause my torsion bars are probably worn out. The shocks definitely keep the front end from “crashing” or bottoming out so often, which is a big plus.
The back end, on the other hand, still feels pretty rough despite many efforts—I’m going to look at my bushings again to check their condition. Always looking for ride improvements!
