Short of moving the tank, Y pipe, or support, I think you have done as good a job as anyone in dealing with the situation. Good catch.

Tire pressure monitoring system.

If one were to install sensors on tire valve stems wouldn't you need to re-balance the tires?

My Jay Feather Sport has a wind deflector on the roof ahead of the refrigerator vent. It is obviously there to help the fridge while moving down the road. It would serve no purpose sitting still.

to balance or not

I wouldn't want a whole lotta shakin goin on as we roll down the road so should I have the new tires balanced. I'm hearing that some people don't bother with any vibration being insignificant.

Stay away from RV shows and dealers.
If you like what you have just keep modifying it to fit the way you use it. We have all been tempted by bigger, newer, flashier, ie; more expensive.
