Earlier today Brazel's RV Performance came out to our Monaco location in Quartzsite and did a couple of Trailing Arm inspections.

I am not sure I am "happy" or :sad" to say that one of our member here will be going in and having his replaced tomorrow. I have taken photos and will get them posted tomorrow - but it was great to meet Jim from Source Engineering along with Steve Brazel and Alan from Brazels... along with Mike Bronzini.

Brazel's also provided some great red wine for the group! It was a hit, Guys!! Thank You for everything. We know that you did not have to come out to us to do the inspections - let alone bring wine too!

We are so sorry that we are unable to be with you all in QZ. We know that you are enjoying yourself and that we are missing out.

Please extend you love to everyone there.

We are looking forward to see your pictures. This is something that we will check immediately when we arrive in Texas in about a months time, but we are not really sure what to to look for a where to look. Are we talking naked eye visable cracks?

Bear hugs all round from the Danes.

Henrik..hugs back to you and Anne!
you do NOT need to worry about the cracks-you have an 8 bag chassis.... and this only on the 4 bags!
We will toast you two tonight!!

Here is a photo of the an old & new trailing arm side by side.(You will find more photos in the photo album link above)


R&J had their trailing arms done yesterday morning. We have another member who had their arms inspected and they have a crack also. Prizm Service Contract company will be sending an inspector out to look at it. (This has been SOP for them.)

We also had Ed Salzer show up to meet & talk to Jim of Source Engineering when Brazel's RV Performance was brought him out.
(I forgot to get a photo of Ed though! )
