Insulation, insulation and more insulation!

As a side note, Colin has typically used Reflectix in the past. I wanted him to use Prodex and supplied it ( I've yet to hear if one is easier to work with than the other!)

The third picture is the axle modification.   The fourth picture shows how the shims were used to stabilize the grey tank!

Axle mounting plates modified to suit mounting bracket & 1/4” lift required due to grey tank installation



Colin commented: Axle brackets are not available that suit the original bolt pattern, so some drilling would be necessary, however on this trailer, one of the axles lined up with a crossmember & as the axle tube is "pre cambered", the arc of the axle interfered with the crossmember, so Airstream just cut the lower flange off the crossmember. We added an angle iron to reinforce the crossmember to help support the grey tank. The axles then needed a 1/4" shim added to them so the arc wouldn't hit the new angle iron on the crossmember. This is why we needed to add material to the mounting plates.

Final grey tank installation.
