What did you do to your Class A MH today???
This is always a fun thread to watch, so I thought I would start one here.

Repaired the hinge of the bed lift.
DW lifted the foot of the bed to store the pillows as usual. this was accompanied by a cracking noise and the bed lifted canted. Turns out the nails that held the bed base to the hinge had ripped out.
Moved the mattress out to the living room, removed the gas strut on the broken side, restapled the base to the hinge and hope it will hold. Real fix will require removing the entire bed support and rebuilding the connection. Not to be done on the road this week. Maybe at my son's unless we trade the coach first.
Need to totally rebuild ours too. Screws securing the strut to the slab ripped out--it's just particle board. Last year I had drilled out the screw holes and glued in wooden plugs but they ripped out too.
Like you, it will have to wait until we get home. Another on the :"To Do" list.
My usual fix for ripped out screws is far simpler, I fill the hole with hardwood toothpicks and Elmers glue. This fix has has held my driver side mirror secure for 5,000 miles.
