POWER CABLE & SEWER HOSE
I removed the sewer hoses from their compartment and installed two peices of 4 inch pvc across the bottom of the unit to carry them in.I have never put caps on any that I have installed this way,I simply place heavy copper wire across the ends by drilling holes in them.
Then I removed the partion that was in the sewer compartment[which is only held by one pop rivot] and placed my electrical cords in there. I recently made a 12ft. cord for short hook ups.
The GAS LINE to the furnace is in that compartment, so some patience is required for safety,but there is plenty of room for your cables.

That's a pretty good idea for the cords. I keep my 30 amp cords and other extension cords in the compartment with the curbside propane bottle. I also keep the extend a stay hoses that I use for my BBQ in that compartment. On the streetside (driver's) I keep most is not all of my water hoses. I have to pull everything out to change the bottle but no big deal.

We have an 02 3880RL. In the large compartment there is a Step down on each side. On the left side we put in a 1X6 against the outside wall and that gave us a five foot long storage area that we put the shore-power line and electric adapter plugs jack handles and etc. in. Much better than the "laundry basket". We store the cord in figure 8. Makes it nice to uncoil when hooking up. Just grab the end and start walking. Treecounter

hi,
the sewer idea is nice, i removed the original and built a custom our of 4" pvc and ran it lenght wise from the front to just before the axles. can put in a 30 and 15 foot sewer hose. with the door facing forward, the silly thing can't fall out as easy.
luck and laughter, grey ghost

We went to 6" PVC to hold our hose. It is easier to get into and also store the rain gutter we use for support. Treecounter
