I can't believe it

It has been a couple weeks since I've had to write about any slide or landing gear issues! I've had to help with a couple on the phone but, not here.

That's a good thing!!

I guess that just says something about our Keystone products. They work good and are easy to fix.

Dale,
I still need to call you to get your opinion on my bedroom slide. My problem is by the time I get up at 2pm in the afternoon here on the west coast, it is already 5pm in your neck of the woods. The coach does not come out until April 2nd from the garage so I guess I have a few weeks to try and get up early enough... =)

Or it could be, Dale, that you have just done such a good job and been so helpful here that all of our problems are solved!

Hang on, Dale...all those winterizwd Montys will be coming out of their caves in a few weeks with low batteries and unlubed slide seals, and the fun will begin again...LOL

Best, and thanks for all the great work..

MIMF2,

Who manufactures the Montana frames? And can you tell me if the main frame is a 10" steel rolled I-Beam structure?

Thanks.

Rick,

We do. Yes, I believe that is what it is. But, I need to get back to you because, I'm not sure if it 10" or 8". I'll reply back.

Dale

MIMF2,

Thanks for the response. The brochure says the frame is constructed using 10" rolled steel I-Beam members.

On another post, someone mentioned that the main members of the frame were really steel parts welded together rather than a single rolled steel I-Beam.
