Re:Rear Bed Weather Seal?
John & Karen,
I had the same problem with our 2002 3326 King. We took delivery of it in October, and we took it home and covered it up. It wasn't until March 2002 that I noticed the same problem. I was getting it ready for our trip to Florida when I was back there and felt all of the cold air in front of the bed. We never had the problem with our 1994 3326 King. So I quickly solved that problem. If you unlatch the bed from the bathroom wall, you can lift up on the front of the bed. This is incase you have to get out because of a fire. You have to be carefull not to raise it too high because the back part will come out of the track and the support arms. I raised it about 20 inches and put a small piece of board under it to hold it up at that height. I took weather stripping which was 1/2 inch thick. I ran the strip across the entire width of the top of the storage compartment.
The problem was fixed and no more northerly winds. I would never had known of the problem except I had the heat on in the trailer and it was very windy and cold out in March.
I am sure this is the same problem that you are having. Just remember not to raise the bed very high . Just high enough to get under to put the weather stripping on. The weather stripping is the kind that you take off the back and it will stick to the wood.
This air leak problem must be something to do with the 3124 and 3326 models. They both use the same size storage under the back bed.
Hope it helps.
