Here is an update; In December, Lippert CI did come on site to inspect, and fix. However, he discovered the damage was too severe to fix in the time allotted, plus he needed parts he did not have. The passenger side "C" channel at the axel had a cracked lower flange, and a sheared web! Right side was 1 1/2" lower than the left! Repair scheduled two weeks out. Parts delivered to me. He returned and spent 6 hours or so relevelling the frame, welding plates to cover this crack and three channel cracks elsewhere. Dang I cannot recall his name, but he was very professional and thorough. That being said, you can bet your ***** that I crawl under and inspect the frame BEFORE and after every trip. Just returned from a 4,000 mile round trip to LA, and so far, so good.
