Steve,

Where is the crack?

Can you take a couple pics?

[tenrsingr]

what else would you like to see? its dark out right now, but tomorrow is a different story. I will be looking for some shocks maybe...

I'd have to see the crack before I could give an advice on whether the trip was safe or not. I'm inclined to say no.

It sounds like frame droop has caused this crack. The good new is that this problem can be fixed by welding up the crack and by welding frame stiffiners to "beef" up that area.

well, we have a few weeks and the camper has been sitting up on blocks for three years while our babies were growing. Now its time to get out and camp and i run into this.... ughhh.. I think I'll give Andy a holler and see what he says...

Perhaps a tow over to Andy is the "best" ideal so he can check it out in person?
