My husband found bolts, err sheet metal screws, that match the prexisting ones. He wishes he had thought of the suggestion to get ones with a bit bigger diameter. One didn't fit very tight. We got a rachet strap around the whole thing. We are back on the road and checking it frequently. So far it seems okay. We have changed our itinerary so we can fix this for good asap. Your comments have been a huge help in giving us an understanding about what the screws are digging into and my husband is feeling more confident that he could fix this himself if he had the right tools.
Our TM is a 2014 2417 with "slide out" dinette. We know now
That was the year that TM shut down for a while.
