  1. Thanks ctgriffi, I’ll check them out. I did notice today when I press upward at that curved seam, that it gives a little like it needs to be tightened upward, and that’s why there’s a gap at the seam, if you know what I mean. It might be a common thing with all that weight over the cab, that there’s a bit of a sag. I’ll see if I can fix the leak first, not everything at once.
  2. Thanks Ctgriffi for the reply. It’s strangely reassuring to know that someone can see out through their floor. Did you see my first pic of the bunk area exterior? Can you make out how there’s caulk in that curved seam on the right then it’s kind of disintegrated headed back? What kind of caulk do I use there? Everyone says not silicone. Would like to caulk it before the weekend rain to test out whether or not it still leaks.
  3. Ok, here’s a pic where I think water is leaking in. You can see on the right where there’s caulk, then it ends, im referring to the pic outside, on the side of the bed area, on the curve. The corresponding interior pic shows where there was a little water, maybe a tablespoon, along that seam. It’s on both sides, identical inside and out. Also, in other pic, the tape measure is where there was a little water underneath the first day I got it home. There’s been no more water there even though we’ve had rain almost daily. I’d like to put regular caulk on that outside seam after it dries out, if that’s the right thing to do. The other pics are of behind the toilet, looking down at the crack between the vertical back wall and the horizontal floor, and the corresponding outside pic. The wall seems dry but I can push it, is that what you mean by mushy? I’m most concerned that this is allowing exhaust into the vehicle. When I test drove it for an hour, I got a slight sore throat and headache, which I attributed to what I thought was the chemical toilet smell, as I’m super sensitive to smells, chemicals, mold, etc. Ive been running a dehumidifier and ozone machine in it for the past week and it’s dryer and slightly less smelly. When I just started it and ran it for 10 minutes, I thought I could smell exhaust. So you can see my concern. If I could seal up the rear crack, maybe the exhaust smell would go away and I’d know what the problem was. thanks for any insights
  4. Thanks Dan for the reply. I’ll take some pics tomorrow (if it ever stops raining🙄)
  5. Hi folks, I’m brand new to this, just bought a 93 warrior in pretty good shape, just starting to uncover little surprises. I was thinking of pulling the carpet out of the bathroom to replace with vinyl plank and noticed the carpet bunched up behind the toilet and upon closer examination find that I can see the ground! On the outside is one of those little rubber strips. Should I remove it and will there be screw holes there so I can reattach the back panel to the floor of the bathroom? And also unrelated, do I use lap sealant or some other caulk where the old caulk has disappeared on the curved seam at eye level on the side of the bed over the cab? Thanks everyone! **wanted to add, maybe the above is not so clear, my model has the toilet on the rear wall basically, and behind it and on the floor, the back wall has separated from the bathroom floor. Has anyone else experienced this? When I go outside I can push the wall 1/2 inch or so to meet the floor, I’m just not sure how to fasten it. That’s where the rubber strip is and I may try to remove it and see if there are screw holes underneath it. If anyone has any ideas I’d appreciate hearing from you.
