Great pictures. Thank you. Your camper looks a lot more serviceable than mine, although yours looks a lot busier underneath than mine. My basement is heated but not insulated, the basement walls sit on top of my bottom sheeting and the screws go through the bottom sheeting onto the basement walls to hold it on. Thats why I'm worried that the screw holes might not hold the screws securely anymore. I guess there's always bigger screws. Also mine has no metal channeling anywhere. How did you hold your camper up while working on it?
I just left it standing on the four jacks. Now this is just my opinion and you can do as you want to your camper. With that said, If there is any question about anything pertaining to a wood frame that should probably be more important than a leaky holding tank. Wood frames are just as good as aluminum frames but require way more maintenance. If your concerned about screws coming out on their own I think that would be a priority as well as maybe being a culprit to your leak. There is another thread going on now that deals with the same issues.

In my many years of servicing and repairing all of my campers I have found that the jobs are usually big but not that hard. I have no skills that what dad taught me and I've done it all.
Good luck and post some pics of the project.
