Fill the holes and when set, re-drill and put your screws back in. R.E.

As with any bonding agent, prep(cleaning the surface) is 75% of the battle. Mark, 80FC35, still in PA ronmarabito2002 wrote: You could probably secure some epoxy putty.

You can also try a Helicoil insert, large hardware stores carry them and most mechanics will know what you are talking about. - Jeff Miller http://www.wanderlodge.net http://www.millercoachworks.com --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "luckyron1" wrote: > How does one re-secure the lower, rear, mount... i.e. the one the > dogleg bar attaches to.... when the anchors/sleeves for the 3 screws > are stripped out??? > > Anyone done this?

Large Zip Dee Awning mount/fastener pulled out from Bird Skin - Tom Warner - 05-16-2005 13:56 I have a lot of aluminum stock which I always find uses for when repairing my 1982. I restored a 1976 GMC motorhome and had the same problem you are experiencing,m pulled the bottom bracket off the body. I cut a piece of 1/4" aluminum(I polished it to a high luster) about 3" square and pop riveted it to the body with an additional piece on the other side of the body. Then I attached the awning bracket to that and its stronger then ever.
