WDH brackets came loose!
Thought I would post this just as a heads up.
My "L" brackets for my WDH came loose while drive on the twistiest, hilliest road I have ever been on. Stopped at the grocery store before heading to the park and noticed the bracket was at a funny angle. The installer put the bottom bolt in the last hole leaving an inch or so between it and the frame. This allowed the bracket to move at an angle when it loosened off.
After a parking lot fix and moving the bolts we made it to our destination after stopping at home depot and getting some nylock nuts and loctite. Used the old nuts as jamb nuts just because I had them. Shouldn't come loose now.
Anyhow heads up and check your setup at each stop. I could just imagine what the outcome of losing a torsion bar while in a turn.
