Problem with front shell seals.
We bought our 2619 used. One thing we noticed right away was that we would have a lot of dirt and dust in the front of the trailer. We also noticed a little moisture around the seals but didn't think much of it. Recently while taking care of some rust under the trailer I found why this was happening. As you will see in the pictures, there is a large gap where the seals are in the front shell. The side walls are square. The best I can tell the seals just were not installed correctly.
I had to come up with a fix. My fix was to add another seal. I used a garage door bottom seal because of its flexible nature. I have attached pictures just in case someone else has a similar problem. I will follow up after a couple of trips to let everyone know how it worked out.
