RE: [A/S] Hensley Mounting



Joy and Others,
I mounted the Hensley on my 34' FK Limited unit, and had to drill holes
through the tank mounting frame for the Horizontal tanks. It turns out
the 25 1/2" distance lands in a place where a hole must be drilled in
the corner of the angle iron that mounts the tanks.
On another note, I have been reading, with interest, both here and on
the Hensley list about newer units having trouble with the "spring Bar
Jacks" loosening up while traveling. I have towed my rig close to 30,000
miles with the Hensley, and neither one of my jacks have ever moved 1/8"
while traveling. I have also been reading mail about the Hensley Hitch
for 3 years now, and this "Jack Moving Thing" has never come up until
the last 2 months. Is it possible a shipment of jacks purchased by
Hensley has the internal screw clearance to loose or something?????

Just an observation,
