Cabover Leak...Help Appreciated!
No doubt some of you reading have followed this saga for some time. I thought I had it fixed; then a small leak. I retested the suspected area with my "rainmaker" and seeing the leak, patched some more. After yesterdays downpour, the leak is still there.
This is a photo of the underside of the cabover on the drivers side and the screws that I have removed.
Several of the screws came out very easy, which tells me the wood is soft. When replacing the screws what is the best filler to use in the holes. What do the screws actually hold together? Is is just the trim? Can I go with a larger screw? Galvanized?
To those of you who have dealt with this before, ALL INPUT as to evaluating the situation and properly addressing the fix is certainly appreciated.
From what I've seen, removing the trim and placing new screws is fairly easy and I should probably replace the screws under the trim as it runs up the front of the cabover.
THANKS.
