I would use Eternabond tape on both sides (front/rear) of the hole so they adhere to the wall and each other. You could probably patch a submarine that way and go a long time without concern :D

We just had a mobile tech seal the trim against the body of the trailer TO the body. Tough to believe the factory either didn't think it needed to be sealed or that they missed it!?

Safety chain enhancement?
While camping with my inlaws, my FIL nearly fell over when he saw the dinky little loop which holds the safety chains to the front on the frame, below the ball. He asked if I thought that would hold...

I'm at a loss as to how to set it up for empty/fully loaded save for finding a halfway (compromise) point with the WD.
