Good afternoon Gang:
Gotta couple of maintenance questions for the experts.
First, has anyone tried to remove and then replace the material that Winnebago uses to line the storage compartments? On my driver's side front compartment they went down through the inside back corner of the compartment with a bolt (under the material where it doesn't show) that holds the outer support bracket for the genny exhaust pipe. And now moisture has gotten around that bolt enough to rust completely out leaving the exhaust bracket just hanging. So I need to pull the material back enough to make sure there's not more rust I need to clean out before filling in the rusty place to hold a new bolt/screw then replace the material, with some kind of glue I would guess. Any suggestions?
Second question: There's two grease zerks on each U-Joint at 180 degrees apart, which usually has one easy to reach and the other almost impossible without moving the coach. Do they both need grease or will greasing one get around to all four caps? I've always tried to get to both of them while under the coach but the older I get the harder it gets to reach the one that always seems to stop at the top of the drive shaft.
