Rob, You are absolutley correct about the refigerator/bathroom module
moving. I have a '73 Painted Desert with the same problem. In talking
with Alex Sirum, he advised that the early model coaches had this
problem because GM did not anchor the modules good enough. If the only
problem is the difference in the door gap, I would leave it alone. The
whole module has slid back at the top and out at the bottom just a
little at a time over many years, also, the roof and ceiling has dropped
ever so slightly. To place it back to original is hard work, tedious,
time consuming possibly expensive and then you have to figure out how to
anchor it so it doesn't move again. I did manage to move mine back a
little bit and re-anchor it. It would take even longer to type out
everything I did. If your interested my phone is 407-267-8984.
