I am a member of a yahoo group, foretravel. Everyone is complaining about the bulkhead separation that is occurring in the 1992-2002 models of the foretravel motorhome. This is a separation which is occurring due to the bulkhead pulling away from the main frame.
Especially where the on board watertank overflow cascades down into the bolted assembly open seam causing internal corrosion. The factory drills and puts a bolt and nut assembly in place to correct the issue. After re-aligning the sub assemblies if needed.
