Broken Body Mounts

During our last trip I identified a noise coming from under the Fleetwood Jamboree GT. I had two broken mounts that attached the frame to the body. They had sheered in half. Wondering if this is a common problem or a isolated one. Is their a recommended fix to reinforce this area or just welding the broken mounts.They are located just ahead of the rear wheels. I need to get under the coach and pay closer attention to the underside.

rtericsson, I would expect this to be an isolated incident however I concur that you should review all of the attachement points on your coach because if 2 have failed the reamining attachment points may have been over stressed!

If you could find a service center that could put your rig on a lift that would be great!
