Thanks for the help. Guess I did not describe it very good.
The heavy metal box over the motor under the bed is intact, although the foam seal stuff is sticking out in places and may not be as tight as it should be. The opening is between the back of that box where the screws all pulled out of the wall and the back wall, like the back wall has slid back maybe 3/4". If I could figure out how to pull that wall back in I would be ok there, but not lots of solid anchor points in there unless I screw something through the carpet into the floor and pull from that, might try that. Any issue with putting a piece of angle iron on the outside and running the screws all the way thru the wall and into that, with a good sealant like the roof caulk or similar between the layers? One should not have to take it off again that I can see short of an accident.
The other opening is where the wires come through the floor to that breaker panel. I doubt one should be able to see the ground below the floor through that opening. (Wish I was smart enough to post pics)
I will try to figure that out. The opening on the passenger side of the bedbox that must be the A/C return, the foam seal between that and that motor cover was not in place either. I agree, someone worked on this who was pretty inept at putting stuff back, but that I'm pretty sure happened with the first owner not the one I got it from. Too bad we did not see all this in our inspection but part of the learning process.
Thanks again.
