Anyone owning a 326, have a close look at your 4 cable brackets on your bathroom slide.
Ours are screwed in with cheap aluminum screws. One of the brackets fell off when we opened up the slide. Upon further investigation we found the screws to be rusted and just snapped off. :eek:
Tried to remove a screw from another bracket and 3 snapped prior to finally getting one out. Looked at the other two brackets to find that at least 3 of the 6 screw heads were snapped off and a disaster waiting to happen.
Had to use a dremel tool to buff down the broken ones and then move the bracket in to a new position to put it back on using stainless steel screws.
I told our RV dealership about this and hopefully they will tell Keystone that they should use real screws.
