Rattling noise in bath area, over the drive axil got very load. Had it looked at and was told the Ride Rite bushings had failed and have wallowed out to the point of metal on metal. The only we to fix is to replace the whole Ride Rite system. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

We have not had that particular problem, but did recently replace all of the bushings on our 2006 Inspire 360. We had about 50,000 miles on it. East Bay Frame and Axlein San Leandro CA has done excellent work on all our coaches for years. Our RV tech spotted a bad bushing, and when East Bay looked at it they found all of the bushing deteriorated and took me underneath to show me.
Kevin Waite was very helpful in figuring out who build what and where to find the bushings. CC was unresponsive to emails.
We've owned this CC for two years, but it came out of Arizona where is was stored indoors. East Bay told me the condition of the bushings at this point was not common, and thought prolonged heat exposure could have contributed to the situation.

Sounds good.
Weather looks good for the weekend over here.
