Bathroom Remodel

I want to remove my cabinet and sink from my motorhome as I need more legroom. I want to hang a sink on the wall. The ones I have seen are about 30 lbs. How do you hang a 30 lb sink from the wall, are there studs or something I can screw or nail into? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

How about making a counter top for a light fiberglass camper sink (perhaps the one you have already) then hang the counter top/sink assembly on the wall and create cantileaver 45ยฐ brackets to support it. This may buy you the leg room under it that you need.

Is a folding sink an option?

There may be a couple other ideas but knowing the layout of your bathroom would help a lot. Include the floor plan of the bath, the hot and cold supply, waste piping and the toilet location and water supply, don't forget the cabinet dimentions.
.
If yours run out from the wall it is easier, if they go down through the floor makes it a little harder.

I've got a couple of ideas but need to know more...

X2, or find a light plastic RV sink. ๐Ÿ˜›
4 whopping cylinders on Toyota RV's. Talk about great getting good MPG. Also I have a very light foot on the pedal. I followed some MPG advice on Livingpress.com and I now get 22 MPG! Not bad for a home on wheels.

Thank you j-d for your post. I think you are right that's why I don't see any pictures of any like that. Maybe just a slimmer cabinet underneath. Or custom.

If your coach has a steel or aluminum frame inside the wall structure, you might be able to find that frame, much like studs in a house wall, and hang your sink.

That said, I don't think even that framing has the strength you need for this mod. Even if you found a lighter sink, at least two factors work against you:

One, RV bounces down the road. This puts stresses on everything.

Two, You or somebody else may lean on that sink and find the mounting wasn't strong enough.
