Frame problem

After David and Jo-Anna had a major failure of their frame at the axle area on there Big Sky I started checking mine all the time. Well yesterday I found that the left MorRyde suspension bracket is bending to the other side about 10 to 15 degrees. And the web of the I beam is starting to warp. And we never went to Alaska.

I first noticed that the lower kitchen wood panel was cracking under compression, now I know why. Because that side of the RV was sinking.

I am waiting for a return call back from Keystone so will keep you posted of what happens on this thread.

The reason for posting this is for all the Big Sky owners to keep a close eye on the frame when traveling. There is a lot of weight on that side of the rig, shower, refer, stove, microwave, TV, fireplace, two slide out assemblies and desk on the 340RLQ

It looks like we could be stuck in Fresno CA. any ideas of what is good to do in this area?

Happy camping,
Dick
