Good afternoon from a hot southwest New Mexico. Just had the front pads replace on my coach. While doing so we noticed several of the bolts holding the drive shafts to the transmission had gone missing. I was lucky enough to find this before they were all gone. I was lucky enough to have several of these bolts in my shop that had showed up on the floor. I had not know what they were for but I had set them in my bolt drawer.
A serious suggestion would be to look at these bolts next time you are working on your coach. I was lucky this could have been real problem.
When we put the bolts back in we used locktight and fresh lock washers to be on the safe side. Do not take this lightly I could have had a real serious accident.
