04 Trailing Arm Question - are these the replacements?

Recommended Posts

Came across the recall and decided to climb under and see if my 04 HR Ambassador had the bad arms. I can’t tell- it almost seems like one is cracked but unsure...

(It’s been raining so wasn’t ideal deal to crawl under)

Read all about recall. Was just making sure these weren’t the replacements before I went to shop 

Be careful here.

When Monaco (the original Monaco Corp) identified the problem and did the recall, they replaced the defective trailing arms with exactly the same BAD DESIGN.

So, even if you have paperwork that shows a replacement, you need to confirm that they are the newer much stronger design.

This is pretty well covered in the link I posted above.

Brett, that link is priceless for anyone with a R4 or RR4.:D  Even if you have the good one, there is a full explanation of what you need. :wub:

And, that write-up is almost a DECADE old. But still 100% on-target.

Here is one with pictures: https://community.fmca.com/topic/569-important-safety-issue-monaco-hr-safari-chassis/
