Is this the well cover? You could just remove that and press on until you get home to fix it. If it's the wall of the trailer, you have definate dry rot. If you can get some epoxy pushed into the gaps, compress it with some clamps. It might hold long enough until you can get it home for a proper repair.

Looks like an offset problem or else the the 15 incher's were added without the lift kit.

Thanks That is what I was looking for. I knew (and did) just take off the panels.
What does the lift kit provide you with and how much does it cost? I suppose it doesnt really matter too much that the tires were exposed.
A bigger problem is I dont have all my latches! That is another post though...

You could be on to something! I went on a trip and the directions had me going up and down a logging road. I almost did not get enough speed on a hill and spun out. (towing with my minivan) I will have to see about reattaching them perhaps with strips of wood to make them stand out a bit.
