You might give Kustom Coach Works (541-501-3371) in Junction City , Oregon a call. They did the floors in my coach and did a great job. He had also done the TV remodel in the front and bedroom areas. Several members of our Monaco club have used them and like his work. I would also second Oregon Elite Rv in Oregon for your Air Conditioners. They have done AC work on several members of our Monaco group. Good luck on your projects and safe travels.

S-Series front and rear airbag
WCourand replied to planodp's topic in Chassis, Handling, Tires & Brakes
Several members in our club have replaced their Air Bags. The front and rear bags are the same so far in all the coaches that have been changed. The coaches that have been done are Sigs , Executives and Dynasty. The front air bag use the 3/4 fitting on the air bag and the rear bags reduce the 3/4 hole down in size. The bags you have found are the same ones we have all used and might be the best price you can find. Just a side note most of us that changed our bags went from the press in fit to the compression style fittings. Since my bags have been replaced my air leveling system has stayed in level mode for as long as 2 weeks, a very big improvement from before the new bags. -
We had a similar problem with our windshield wipers only working in certain Positions. Replaced the clockspring and everything works. The video shows a detailed explanation of how to replace it. I called REV and after giving them my Vin they told me the part number I needed. While in there replacing the Clockspring don't forget to grease the steering wheel fitting.

Call Source engineering and get the best shocks you can. Labor to install is the same on a cheap shock as the slightly more expensive model. Several members of our Monaco club have upgraded/replaced our shocks using the Source Engineering Bilsteins and every one of us has been very impressed with the results. Many members have said their coach never road or handled as well .

informations about 2004 Monaco Diplomat PAQ
WCourand replied to Diplomatdriver's topic in General Motorhome Discussion
Welcome to the Monaco Family and hope you enjoy your new coach in Germany. -
I had a 2009 La Palma diesel pusher for 3.5 years. It was a white-knuckle ride at first but with a few upgrades it was a pleasure to drive. I did a steering stabilizer and then replaced the Monroe shocks. The coach only had 30,000 mile on it but when I pulled the shocks, they were ALL completely shot. The Workhorse chassis had 2 different style shock mounts from front to rear. My fix was to order Koni's and Bilstein , 2 for the front and 2 for the rear. The result was amazing the coach drove like never before, tracked straight and no more white-knuckle driving.

If you still have the Drivers side mirror for sale I would be interested in buying it. -
Monaco Technical Service Bulletins

Use caution if you access the listed site it locked me out of my computer and gave me virus warning. -
We had a similar problem a few years back. Turn signals would start to not work and then work. The signals finally stopped working completely. Napa Auto had a replacement flasher and that fixed the problem. Our coach had the flasher in the Left front electrical panel/box / bay just in front of the drivers front tire. I attached a photo of our flasher

Have used Diesel Kleen for several years and it has been great. I also started to add Lucas additives to the fuel with great results.

We had a similar problem with our motorized bat wing antenna. Unit would not go up and rotate. Took the unit apart and lubed all the rusty internals, reassembled and the unit works fine. You might try taking it apart cleaning the rusty parts and giving it some lube.

Have you replaced the hose on your Glenndinning Hose Reel?
WCourand replied to LakeBob's topic in Water Systems
Replaced our hose with a Flexzilla hose. Removed almost all of the old hose leaving about 3 ft attached to the reel. Purchased a brass barbed fitting from Home Depot and used it to attach the new hose to the old. I had to remove the end of the hose not needed but saved the hose I cut off from the new hose. The Flexzilla hose is 50 ft long and I cut about 15 ft off of it. I purchased a new hose end and now use this section if I encounter a situation where my hose reel is too short. I have had to use it on a few occasions, and it worked great. The Flexzilla hose has worked great and remains very flexible and easy to store. -
Not 100% sure but I think the Bilstein shocks form Source have a larger diameter shat and are revolved for Source .Good luck on your selection. Remember you will probably only replace these shocks once while you own the coach. should say shaft and revolved. Spell check keeps changing revalved
