Yes, please! I have a great welder lined up to do this and the only info I have is the sketches from the class action suit that show the A frame reinforcement - nothing sbout the spring hangers. I've got no problem picking up some extra steel when I go to buy for him so I can get everything beefed. Thanks!

Yes, please post some pictures. I have a buddy with the same trailer and it looks like we will be doing the mods ourselves. Any pictures would be very very helpful. Thanks in advance !!!!!

Here they are..... this is what WW did on mine for an upgrade. They put on 6 outriggers and ran channel iron from right side to left side across on all the spring hangers. They also (welded) boxed inside the spring hangers with steel plate.

I called WW today to schedule my prophylactic fix and was told I would have to get the fix done myself. The operator told me WW is closing their doors soon. They no longer have a service dept or warranty department. Has anyone been told this? Is there any truth WW is going out of business? For those of us on the fringes experiencing issues with our trailers any information to shed light on the subject would be nice.

Thanks for the update. I posted my question before I could read the whole thread. Which brings me to another question for everyone. Can anyone help me or have information on anybody doing the prophylactic fix on their own and where it is being done? Would appreciate any input or guidance. Thank you.

Did they do anything with the tongue of the trailer? Thats where my buddy has had the biggest problem. Its tweaked and the front corners of the trailer have split open allowing water to get in. Thanks for the pics.

I got my trailer delivered back to my house a week before WW closed the doors. They did all the above work that you see in those pics on my trailer too and they did the fix on the tongue also, even though I had the thicker tongue already.
They also resealed my roof corners and my front cap and my front roof vents.
I will also add they cleaned my trailer inside and out.

If you could take as many pics as you can of all of the additional welding that was done (I know you just posted the support for the spring hangers, but any additional outrigger/tongue pictures will help - I have the class action diagrams, but no live pictures - especially for the same model trailer that I have! ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/smile.gif "smile") ) Thanks!
