Photo request for interior rear wall

[mike]

Hello All, hope everyone had a nice weekend.

I am in the process of framing for my rear lounge and would like to tie the framing into the rear wall for support.

I have searched the photo archive and didn't see what I was looking for, do you have a photo of the rear wall with the aluminum structure exposed?

Ideally if you can provide the locations of and or distances between aluminum studs it would be a great help. I suppose I could use PL Premium and
glue the wood framing to the wall but I would prefer to easy to undo method.

Thanks again for the help,
Regards,
Mike

The rear wall is SMC, no aluminum framing there.

None of those show the inside real wall that he wants. I’ll look to see if I have anything when I get home in a couple of days.

Thanks James and Jerry, Emery I look forward to receiving your details.

If there are no aluminum framing to tie in to would you recommend PL Premium or another option?

Thanks again,
Mike

I would not attach to the rear hatch., but fab up a sub structure from wood
or a material like trex that could easily be removed when access to
electrical and plumbing was required. Just what I would do.

Here are a couple pictures of the rear panel from the inside with the cover removed. Coach has a build date of Feb 1975 if that makes any difference.

As others have pointed out there is no aluminum framing in the rear cap. See my photo album for pictures; each photo can be clicked on to enlarge. I added wooden blocking for the table support and as a backer for the roof ladder mount.

Thanks for the images Jim and Wally, today curiosity got the better of me and I had a look behind the panel.

I think what I will do is a combination of James's suggestion and another idea to create a wooden support frame of 1X2's and tie it into the other
framing I have already built. Having access to all wiring and plumbing is a must in an emergency or for repair work.

Thanks again for all your suggestions,
Regards,
Mike
