tank support in Surveyor

Morning...new to forum and new to FR products...have purchased a 2018 Surveyor 251RKS TT with the forward mounted 46 gal water tank...with all the posts and general internet concerns about the filled tanks literally falling out of the trailers because of lack of support, I'm wondering if someone has actually undone and rolled back the underbelly mat to inspect the tank supports and/or fabricated additional support for the tank(s)...this is our third RV and I've never experienced an issue nor had a concern about tank support, but it is obviously an issue with some/all FR products. Thanks for any response.

Welcome to the forum its a great place to get your questions answered. You know this tank thing is sort of like the china tires; seems like they are falling out all over the place but when you look at the thousands of rigs out on the road it is a very small percentage that experience a problem.

Yes, I expect that is true...unless you are in that small percentage.

Just type in water tank support in the search box and you will get all the different ways people have done this. I had Coachmen add extra supports at the rally. Also fixed my tank vent hose that was kinked.
