Coach Separating from Cab!
I have a Jayco 2003 3100SS with about 25k miles (had since new)... Got an interesting problem just happened. While on a trip, I noticed the coach box separating from the cab, just on the passenger ...

Well, after a couple weeks of looking over my pics, the Jayco Customer Service guy said he didn't know what to do - that I should take it to a dealer and have it looked at. NOT what I expected from Jayco!
I attached some pics, and from really looking at the chassis close, it appears the forward most C channel was not aligned correctly from the start! It is twisted to align with the bolt coming from the frame support. That has caused the side to begin to pull away from the cab. The step mounting bracket is bolted to it, and it has started to deflect from the twist.
I may be able to unbolt it and straighten it/redrill the mounting support hole, but it is pretty far off! I'm surprised it took this long for the problem to show!
