    I'll bring up your stop-drill idea to them.
    Fortunately at home.

    Thanks again for all your help and advice, forum comes through again.

    Was wondering what the outcome was on this issue? Hopefully you got it all worked out.

    Worked out great. I picked the welder, Lipppert covered the cost even though it was out of warranty. I’ll post pics as soon as I receive them. When I asked the Lippert rep for the scope of work, he said he couldn’t share it with me, only approved service centers, which the welder was not. I asked him if he would allow an electrician to work on his house without seeing a SOW, but he wouldn’t answer me. Interesting maybe some of you guys know the reasoning.

    It's a C.Y.A. tactic, especially when admitting no fault and providing parts under "good will" or "customer satisfaction" or "customer loyalty." Lawyers are so creative!

    Here's the photos from the welding job, cost me $400, don't know if that's high or low, I'm fine with it, he's well respected here.

    Thanks for the update. Looks like holes to stop cracks from spreading followed up with a grind out and weld? Any welding from the other side or reinforcement?

    Clean work. I am surprised that Lippert did not require their standard repair detail with the reinforcing plate.
