Sorry to hear about the cracked axles - wow, that must have been a real pain to full timers like you guys. As the DW and I move closer to being full timers, stories like that cause us to really wonder if its the right move.
I don't know if we will ever become compleatly full time but we have been on the road for 7 weeks on this run and will be heading home in the morning. 4000 miles so far and 2000 more to home. Plan to be home on the 20th or so. Got to go back and work a little while.
All the best my friend!

Hey Larry, it wasnt nearly as bad as we thought it was going to be, especially when we found out Insurance wouldnt cover it.
We had them beefed up and repaired and were back on the road within a week. Luckily when we found it, we were home in Michigan and had sent the camper in to have new brakes put on, which is why they found the cracks because the drums were removed.
This meant we had a place to stay while they kept the camper for the week to do the repairs.
Dont let something like that scare you, most dealerships will let you stay in your camper if something like this would come up while you're on the road
