This part of the renovation of our camper is pretty well finished, here is a picture of the left front jack attach point to contrast with the one I started this thread with. I finally feel confident that when I crank that jack up, the camper will be lifted...

I am happy with the way the door turned out, I ended up putting a couple of metal brackets on the bottom that hook behind the metal structural tubes inside and the lock at the top holds it in place. I decided against using screws because I want an easier access to be able to turn off the propane as needed. Don't yet know if it will keep the water out.
Next I found rot under the rear door and started tearing it apart...

I had to remove about a foot and a half of floor and about two feet of the supporting structure, the full width of the TC. Happily it was a quick fix, one day to take it apart and another to rebuild it.

We have a reservation for Friday in 2 weeks at the KOA in Bromont, Quebec (a 2 nights for 1 special) for our first outing in this rig. We are really looking forward to it. But I have had to prioritise my renovations list, because it ain't gonna be finished in a week and a half! But I will have another 2 months to finish the rest of it before our real vacation in July.
