Hi, I have a 2022 Forest River Cherokee Alpha Wolf trailer and recently had a blowout on the front, passenger-side tire. Luckily, it only did minor damage: broke the plastic external wheel cover fender and shredded the underbelly cover, of course, any insulation was lost. The affected area is between the frame and the fiberglass trailer shell and is only a foot wide and about two feet long. Anyone have suggestions about what to use to replace the underbody cover? Thanks in advance.
 
Welcome to RVforums from Ely, Iowa. It would be great if you could add some pictures. basically you have to trim up the damaged underbelly area for clean edges making sure you have an area to land the replacement patch panel cut to fit. Once the damaged area is opened replace the insulation. Maybe consider a spray in insulation. Then using a good adhesive and self tapping screws reattach the new patch panel.
