Jim,

Just curious - how much (rough estimate is fine) to replace the frame
rails?

Patrick,
Sorry for not getting back to you yesterday but I got behind schedule
and did not have time to answer the Email.

I can't remember how much the last rail replacement I was involved in
cost, but I think the rails cost about $1000 each and the labor was
about the same. If you have more interest, I would recomend calling
Alex Serum, he would be the one I would have do a job such as that. As
yet, I do not have the equipement to properly perform the job.

Jim, no need to apologize as I was in no hurry. I was just curious
because my coach spent much of its early life up north and the rails
have quite a bit of surface rust. The rails still look sound, but I've
always thought I might have to replace them someday.

Thanx,
Patrick
