I need to do a lower hinge repair on my 1978 coach i recently got, and the bracket part that held it is complely broke out, does anyone have the dimensions where to drill the holes for the bolts to go though the other side, (otherwise i'll just line up the hinge to the wear marks and use that)


Thanks David

Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car, understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Hp is how fast you hit the wall, and torque is how far you take the wall with you when you hit it.

David,

I read a measurement from center of top hinge lower bolt to center of top bolt on lower hinge
of 38-5/8 inches.
Between hinges is 37-3/8 inches.
PO damaged the lower hinge on my coach, but not that severely. Just deformed.

Good luck on the repair.
