SCRIPAL

I put 50-55 lbs. in mine.

I am hitting the river today!  Saw your post and thought I would give you my 2 cents worth.  We get a good amount of rain and snow here so, I decided to cover the roof to prevent water from leaking in.  I have had some issues with that !  I purchased a cloth tarp for mine and I am very pleased with it.  I posted this week on this site that Chicago Canvas is running a sale this entire month with 20% off.  I believe I paid about $120 for mine. The tarp is very well made but it is quite heavy and has large grommets tie downs.  I place a 5 gallon bucket up front and back of the roof and then put the tarp on and cinch it down.  This makes a tent like configuration which allows air to circulate under the tarp. BTW I would not recommend a full RV cover that you see advertised on the Net.  Junk and they last no more than two years. Tight Lines

Hi Hannah, Linda is the expert and her advice is solid.  I would just like to say that it is critically important that the screws that came out of the inside frame are all screwed back into the holes that they came out of. I had to remove my cab over window for repair and and one of the screws I thought was in the hole properly was not.  Sure enough, the first rain that came it started to leak because there was insufficient pressure at that point.  I reinserted and tightened the screw and the seal was good.  Good luck

Another idea.  If the paper is "bubbled" get a large hypodermic needle, fill with adhesive, pierce the paper and inject. Keep working it until any excess comes out and press to adhere.  Worth a try.

Hi Candace, my son is in commercial building.  He says his window contractors on high rise structures swear by Dow Corning 795 because of it's tremendous flexibility, important issue because Toys bounce and sway during movement.  Google it in and check out it's qualities.  It is easy to work with but takes 7-14 days to fully cure.  It is rain resistant immediately upon application.  He gave me a tube left over from one of his jobs and I have used it to seal all my running lights with good results and no leaks. As with all sealants, make sure the area is very clean prior to application. Lastly, the pics. you provided . Is one of  them the ladder attaching to the roof and near the vent pipe? I would seriously consider removing the screws, thoroughly cleaning the area to the metal and cover with Eternabond.  I would then re-fasten it to the roof with screws.  I believe these areas are your culprits.  I had the same leak problem around a vent pipe with just a tiny crack.  Believe me a tiny crack/hole will result in a lot of water entering the cabin and causing damage.  I believe you can buy 795 at Lowe's. Good luck with the leaks.....I have had my share!
