Noisy and LEAKING water pump

So I was tired of the noise from the water pump and the lines banging on the walls so I took up the rear bed to investigate. I found it was mounted to the floor and was leaking. A spare screw was rusted to the floor underneath the pump and water was all over the floor.

I changed the location - mounted it to the rear plywood wall and used two hoses to do so - all the threads are NOW sealed with Teflon tape (Thor did not do this - Surprise!). Also secured Pex tubing to wall and cushioned with sponge - no banging at all now - Much much quieter!

I also installed a light in the rear under bed storage compartment - used the two wires that were not being used to do so! Installing 2x 100lb pneumatic shocks to keep compartment open so removing the front table does not give me headaches - literally!

Also planning to install a vent to allow the 1K inverter to be cooled, it was very hot the other day and this was without load.
