2000 Bigfoot Camper Delamination?
Good afternoon! I just recently purchased a 2000 Bigfoot Camper 9.6 and we took it out doing a lot of dispersed camping and put it through the ringer! 3,026 miles across Washington State, Idaho, Nev...

So I found some more light water damage in the propane tank compartment and the under the battery compartment.
If anyone has any tips on how to get the propane compartment out I would be appreciative.
Id also be curious if anyone can point me in the right direction for somone who has replaced the compartment. It seems to be some sort of molded plastic/rubber unlike anywhere else in the camper and I’ll likely need to replace it as well as the door to the compartment.
For the battery compartment I’m likely just going to put some plywood over the hole and fiberglass it shut. As I’ve switched to Lifepo4 batteries and those like to be inside.
For the bottom of the camper I went ahead and got new and improved insulation and went with an r8 insulation which should hold the heat and keep it cool better. While down there I also added some insulation to the water pipes.
for your battery compartment, why don't you get a normal insulated door and put it there, that would let you load and remove batteries from the outside
that propane compartment should just be a steel liner that is slid into place from the outside then anchored down. I would Imagin if your carful you can find all the fasteners and then just pull it out
It's not metal, the inside is some sort of rubberized material that is flexible. Do you know where I could purchase a metal compartment?
interesting, if you can get it out in one piece you can reuse it, the one in my old camper is just sheets of sheet metal all sealed at the joints so there is that option to make your own. just use a good urethane sealant that sticks real well, not silicone it will come lose over time.
