Since the cabinet above looks pretty normal, I'm guessing there is an unusual 'slant'. Skin below the back window doesn't look too healthy either. Or is that just an unruly bed spread?

Here ya go...
As the skirt boards fail the street side wall has dropped by about 2".
Needs new skirts installed and shouldn't be towed without cheater blocks installed inside.

Loliners are infamous for street side wall sag. Wonder how I know this??? Working on a 65 right now... The wall was bulging badly and the stove had sunk 2 inches. Wheel well underneath had a gap of 2 inches. They are not on top of the floor, but underneath. Staples were supposed to support them. I used jacks, strapped the walls together and slowly got it back into position. Possibly lost 3/4 of an inch but better now. Bolted the wheel well. Also, the side wall supports, mainly the kitchen cabinet edge walls, were gapped. Front shelf had a finger wide gap as well. Moved the galley in a bit which really helped. Will support the counter top underneath and be sure the stove is well supported. Photos are here: 65loliner.shutterfly.com/pictures |

Another thing that causes that is a tire blow out with full loss of rubber. The skirt boards are already rotting and soft and then a tire blows to finish it off. You will know if that happened by looking at the wheel well. from the inside. If it is all blown out and dented then there was a blown out tire involved.
