EASY now------ about hacked arches. They help the bus corner like its on rails--sike!!!! Whats the easiest way to determine which one or ones are bad, and how labor intensive is it to replace them them.

Is it true Keith --- you gonna start paddling out into the waves again? Or are you gonna stay on the jetties and throw fishing tackle at us in the water. How is Ians bus comming or are you done with that? I need to fix my flappy arches but due to a new baby on the way and the wife going to be off work for a while, I have to refrain from spending money on my bus.

Just a thought but are you sure the clicking is comeing from the rear of your bus? mine did a similar thing when turning left! it turned out to be a worn front wheelbearing, you can adjust it fairly simply!

Yeah its comming from the rear. Keith I have some new boots in the garage just haven't had time to install yet. I'll try and swing by tuesday (tomorrow) with the bus and let you hear it or something and we can go from there.

Thanks, Laters
