2nd idea- If the rear cap can be removed and the rear wall braced at the corners or spray-foamed all the areas that can be, it would help eliminate flex. If you have a solid rear wall with no window, Memphis model- you could spray foam the entire wall area.
And then reattach the cap with backing strips all the way around.
I’m pretty sure that you have to pull the rear window to remove the rear cap. There have been two guys saying that the rear has been rock solid after they braced the the rear wall. One did a write up but it was confusing and he could not answer the questions I had for him. So I’m going to do it the way that I think it should be done and do a write up on bracing the rear wall in another post. This is only part 1 of the fix.
