Exclamation Watch out for sewer bracket failures.

The metal strap attachment screw snapped because it is not a high quality one. The sewer line now is loose so it might be a common problem to watch for on Minnie and the Drop line of trailers.

I noticed it because we just installed the axle riser kit for our Winnie Drop. Fortunately there are no signs of vibration damage or other issues showing up so far. The fix is to drill out the broken cheap screw and replace it with a good quality slightly larger self tapping stainless nyloc and much better support strap that is made for use exposed to dirt and water all the time. Would imagine that this is a common problem on travel trailers. Simple fix but something that should be upgraded before the inevitable failure occurs.
