3750FL Axle Support Recall Fix

Just got back from taking the rig to the dealers to have the additional support bracket put on the rig. It looks like a pretty sturdy fix since it reaches all of the way across the rig and is bolted onto the center spring hangers of the Mor-ryde system. I didn't have the camera with me, but have to go by the mini-storage tomorrow so I will snap a couple of pics and post them for those who are interested. The fix appeared to be a square tubular steel bar that prevents side sway of the spring hangers. Installation took about an hour. We are officially ready for the Easter fist-time-out trip now.

Great Bingo. I'd love to see the pictures. I'll be picking my unit up in a couple of weeks and will also want to ensure I get this complete.

It is most likely the MorRyde X factor braces.

We also have a 3750FL Montana and the recall for the axel was completed for ours a couple of months ago.
Also there was a recall on the refrigerator/freezer a few months ago. You may wish to check on this with your dealer. Both recalls were handled quickly by our dealer here in Colorado.

After reading the Montana recall notices, I called the Keystone Customer Service number and gave them my Vin #. I was very pleased to find out that my unit did not qualify for any of them, I guess based on manufacture date. After seeing the modifaction that was made to Bingo's unit, I'm a bit confused, as I do not recall seeing the cross brace on my unit. Should I be concerned?

Perhaps the center spring hangers were beefed up on the subsequent runs of the 3750?? I don't know for sure. If I remember correctly, our rig came off the line at the very end of September.
