I don't find the OPs discovery very "shocking", looks like expected damage caused by over filling the FW tank. Turning a 40 gallon FW tank into a 60 gallon tank "will actually tear apart the structure of the floor on your camper", that info, plus alot more including a full page diagram showing likely damage from "hydrolic force" is clearly explained in the Arctic Fox owners manual. Looks like an easy fix, I'd just add some additional bracing, and replace the non-structural bottom skin.
You fill the tanks till it spits out the intake. Thats what my Lance manual says. So exactly where does this extra 20 gallons fit? BTW my friends Artic Fox dropped its belly to due to inadequate bracing of the FW tank. AF cheats on what you dont see, thats what I learned from his AF.
