I had one break in Florida in February. It broke off even with the I beam.

Had a mobile welder come in and put it back in place and weld it, he then welded a piece of angle on the frame and to the hanger on front and back for more support.

The hanger is 4 inches long and he said most are 3 so it gives more flex.

This was on the door side rear hanger. The welder said he has seen this a lot and the units that do not have shocks have a lot of broken springs.

Just another day in RVing.
