The rebuild looks good Don.
I also noticed Terry ran the floor joists front to back on the camper frame. I thought that was odd, but maybe you have in floor heat ducts and they needed the floor joist cavity as a heat duct.
Our camper has the floor joists running left to right so every joist is holding up the walls. The metal frame outriggers help hold the house above the frame to the frame but are not really wall supports. I have round heat ducts off the furnace that run through cabinets and then left the heat out a round registers all above the floor. I also have 2 duct pipes that go down through the floor through the tank compartment and come back up through the floor. They heat the tank compartment on the way to bedroom and bathroom register.
Keep up the good work.
