Got my attention also....is there something else required besides the two plates to reinforce the mitered welds and the brackets for extra body attach points (also in the front of the camper)?

It was inevitable that someone was going to do that. I'll be interested to hear what ETI says, but I don't think I'd worry about it. Generally speaking, the center of a beam is the lowest stress...

So to answer my previous question, the angle brackets go 8" forward of the miter joint, center to center. I received that info in a pm from another member of the forum, and Escape called today to...

Hi Reace,

Oh, okay. Thanks for clarifying. Is there an actual preferred dimension forward of the corner of the miter joint?

For anyone who has had the plates and angle brackets installed on a 19, I'm interested in the two angle brackets that provide additional body attachment to the floor. Previous correspondence with...

I hear you. I look at what appears to be an excellent quality miter joint with a backing across the entire rear surface, and I just wouldn't expect there to be a catastrophic failure. But it's just...

The odds are probably in your favor, but when a weld lets go under load, it lets go. The heat effected zone around it can be more brittle than the parent metal, and I wouldn't plan on it giving much...

We pretty well hashed that out several posts ago, and didn't seem to get anywhere with it. So that's still an unknown, I believe.

Looking at the photo from ETI, I concluded that the angle bracket is aft of the miter joint, not forward. It's to the left of the jack, and I thought I was looking at the passenger side of the...

I was a little surprised that they didn't specify placement of the angle brackets, so I was at least going to guesstimate where they go based on ETI pictures and ensure there is nothing to interfere...

Ruthe, I was actually in high-speed air-breathing propulsion, where we often competed with rockets but also relied on them for getting our engines up to speed. 'Nuff about that, I guess. Would be...

I agree that they have plenty on their plate right now, but I'm also curious about the background for this recall. I'm reminded of the issue a couple of years ago with some spare tire mounts not...

Here are three of photos of the left side of our 2013 19'. This doesn't add much to the discussion other than I said I would post pictures, and now I can retract what I said earlier about this being...

I agree. I am regretting not taking a couple of photos! It felt smooth behind the joint, which may be the piece that smac2 is describing. I'll stop by the Escape (in storage) tomorrow and take a...

I finally had a look at our 19' 2013 model. The recall makes it sound like this joint is a simple miter joint held together with nothing but a weld bead, like in a picture frame, but in truth, it's...
