Hi John! Yes, the picture I put in is not the best to know what you are looking at, I admit. Like I did mentioned I put all the pics I took in my gallery ( http://toyotamotorhome.org/forums/index.php?app=gallery&user=5355 ) maybe by having a look at these you may have a better idea. What I "see" is a wood beam of about 1 inch wide (or is it 2 inches??) that is broken close to the cabinet, passenger side. In the pic I put here, you see the broken beam, and basically the "hole" for the crank handle for a TV antenna. DOLPHINITE and sdboltdude: I hope you are wrong Serge

Hello everyone! To start my story, last summer, and the end of a week long trip around the Gaspe region, we discovered after a nice summer storm that there was a leak somewhere. So upon coming back me and my wife proceeded to re-caulked all the outside edges, around the AC outside, and even tighten the AC unit itself (added washers), water hose tested, and even came to look at our Mini cruiser after big rain falls, and no water inside found. After this winter, we came to have a look, and to our dismay, we did find water and a broken/rotten wood beam close to the "start of the nose", forward of the AC and the cupboards. I have put more pictures in an album, but don't know how to link to it, sorry . Is this "beam" Important? WHAT SHOULD I DO and how? Now, I am not much of a hands on type of guy, and we park our MiniCruiser at my in-laws, so not much of a working area, but was wondering what work I am looking in getting into? And since there was a lot of snow up here this winter, I noticed that the roof as sagged also, so thinking of removing the AC, but is there a "bigger" problem I should expect? I can understand that these "simple" explanation and pictures may not be much, but thank you in advance for any help and guidance you may provide...

Hi all! Thanks for the replies and tips And there I was thinking I always had to use the jacks till the wheels for of the grounds I am going to go park somewhere level and get a few "stickies" installed, and I like the Lego's instead of using the wood blocks that we inherited Again a big thank you!!

Hello everyone! My girfriend and I have gotten a '86 Mini-Cruiser (that's what it says on it LOL) from her parents, and have been enjoying the 3 times we have taken it out on weekends... I have been bitten with the RV bug!!! Being brand new to RV'ing, I wonder if anyone can help me with the placement of the jacks when setting it in the campground, been having one oooo of a pain to try to level the RV everytime (bringing the question where to put the level??)... And any other tips and hints for newbies will be appreciated Also, I wonder if we could replace the scissors jack with hydraulics one completly, and what I should look for (i.e. weight capacity). Thank you in advance for all help, hints, links and tips you will provide! Serge
