From Facebook, I learned of a new owner who bought a coach in Fla and had a local shop go through the mechanicals and do some upgrades at considerable expense. Headed to Key West only to have a wheel come off. Came back to the shop on the hook where the bearings were REPLACED rather than being repacked and lubed as previous.

This weekend, they departed for home, Dallas and near Shreveport, they lost the mid wheel on the other side. The castle nut and cotter key is still on the spindle and the keyed washer is bent and deformed enough that the hub came off. Shocked

He posted on FB and asked for help because he didn't have a copy of the Black list. I gave him my number and he called and I gave him Billy Massey's number thinking Billy would know folks in that part of the world. He did get Billy but there isn't a Blacklister nearby.

The shop installed a 4 bag system and the owner aired it up and limped to a motel. He discovered the AAA platinum towing he had purchased a few weeks ago did not have the RV rider.

Anyone in the area that can help or can suggest someone who can help? Contact me at two 5 six six 79 four four 88 and I'll put you in touch with the guy. I suspect his frustration level is off the charts
