Great underbelly enclosure videos
For folks who (like me) are thinking about tackling this big modification project, I'd recommend these two videos:
Part I
Part II
The videos are kind of long, but I think that most of the length is necessary -- he explains what he is doing and why, and there are some very useful tips along the way. For example, he recommends removing the stabilizer jacks before installing the insulation and the coroplast, and then re-installing the jacks, thus providing a much better seal for the underbelly covering.
He also recommends undoing the propane lines as needed, so that they can pass through the insulation and the foam. That's a little worrisome -- I hate to disturb a non-leaking propane connection -- but I think his idea is worth considering, and I may imitate his method.
Watching the video carefully, I don't think he drilled pilot holes for his self-drilling screws. That method seemed to work well, so I need to re-think my plan to pre-drill everything.
