All,
Earlier today pulled the coach to get some fuel.  Arrived back home with no issues.  Left the coach outside while I cleaned the floor.  Found a broken 1/4 20 bolt laying on the floor....didn't have an idea where it came from as I haven't taken anything apart lately with that kind of bolt and nut.  When the floor dried, backed the coach in the garage and steped out to a collapsing entry step.  Investigating the steps found three of the four MILD STEEL carriage bolts broken on the motor assembly tray.  Needless to say grade 5 or 8 fasteners are going back in.

Crap, even that's made in China! Yep, grade 5 or 8 with Nylock nuts will best it.
