Trout fishing trip .Issue #2

I have looked, touched, shook could never find it. Under the R/S of MH near wheel, maybe steps, maybe fender..... After dealing with my bizarre fueling situation I made it to my fishing spot .

I turned the motorhome onto a service road down a slight incline to read the bulletin board. Backing onto the small county 2 lane road when I got to the top there was a clunk, a bang

an even louder bang then I could not turn the wheel. I inched forward a foot and then I could steer. Inched off the road and took a look. The big A&& sway bar was hanging down. The

bracket broke, and some other connecting parts. In a safe area I broke out the tools to remove, nope no deep 15MM. A 45 mile drive back to Bishop with the bracket lashed up with a tie down, $7.52 cents at auto zone

and laying on black parking lot in 90* heat it was off in 10 minutes. As I drove away I smiled.....no more rattle.........

I purchased the coach with the sway bars on it. After driving home in very strong winds I realized the importance of having one installed, huge difference in handling, huge.
  • Klutchdust, sorry to hear about these issues but thank you for posting the fixes that worked for you. I hope these trout trips are not a recurring issue. It would be terrible if you had to become a bass fisherman. :S
  • Wow, couple bizarre and random unexpected issues......probably nervous waiting for the 3rd bad thing all week after those 2! Lol
    Both of those woulda been a show stopper for many. Good thing yer handy!
    Big question, how was the fishing?
