PAY THE TOLL AND MOVE ON IN LIFE
I think we all agree that who ever was suppose to torque the rod caps failed to do so for what ever reason. Based on that then who ever got paid to do it should assume the responsibility and make it right.
I also think this way of dealing with the problem has been more than far and the builder should consider himself lucky to get a chance to make it right and to show all he will stand behind his work even if he has to take it in the shorts. I know it hurts but it is the "best business" decision.
If the responsibile person thinks I am wrong that is ok, but again I say, ask PACE AMERICAN TRAILERS if they want on here in the BAD SPOTLIGHT again :?: I think not :!: :!: :!:
