  1. Ronnie,  I can't tell from your pic how the roller is attached to the track, if it is like a bypass closet door that you would have in your home you might be able to lift the door, move it toward or away from you the track? Hou could then remove the roller and reattach it to the door.  Then reverse the process to put both rollers back on the track.

  2. Don, where are you located?  We have a guy here in Oregon who was a former employee of Monaco in Junction City, Oregon.  He knows these coaches inside and out. He makes furniture, installs carpet,etc, etc, etc.  His business is called Amazing Creations, he's on the Internet, his name is Scott Adams.

  3. Vito, thanks for the encouragement, 10 years ago I could have done it. Today at almost 80 with a few issues I can't contort my body to get into tight places.   It's a pain to accept, but I'll have to lea e it to a professional.

  4. Has anyone had their dash ac recharged on a 2007 Holiday Rambler Endeavor? If so, did you have it done at a rv shop or can a auto shop do it.  Also, where are the ports for recharging located?  Appreciate any help with this, we're selling and want to make sure everything is working.

  5. Daryl,  I did not buy the toilet, I kept looking on Amazon and lucked out and they had two in stock, I hit the purchase button quickly and had it within 3 days.  Sometimes we're just lucky.  However, if I had not found the part I would have purchased the OEM toilet from N W RV Supply

  6. I bought one from Amazon 2 years ago,$375.  You might also try N W RV Supply, Eugene, OR, 541-746-9092.  If they don't have the part or access to it they might have a replacement toilet.  When I was shopping for the control board I I itially could. Ot fine one, N W Supply had new toilets for 1/2 the price off what I was finding from other sources.  Good luck with your search

  7. I suspect that your current sofabed weighs at least a couple of hundred pounds consider springs, mattress, platform to support the bed etc.  Ask the furniture store if they have a weight on what you are considering.  With that said you will likely have trouble getting any conventional sofa into you unit.  We changed out two poorly designed and uncomfortable recliners for a 84" sofa, we were able to find one that made into a jacknife bed and came in 3 pieces, 2 ends and the sofa/bed that we could get into our previous coach thru the door.   They are out there, but will require some searching,  but more importantly approval of your wife.   Good ,uck

  8. J D,  you are correct.  There is a plethora of info on these social media forums, often offered by individuals who no nothing about the subject, but have an opinion.  Sadly this is true throughout media today, people wait daily for some talking head, making millions of $$$$ to tell them how and what to think.  The media outlets are making billions of $$$ by telling us what we want to hear.  I'm fearful that all this misinformation will have long-term negative consequences for for our future.  The Monacoers forum is full of helpful, accurate information offered by those who have experienced it.

  9. Jeff, sometimes the solution is more difficult than expected.  On my '07 Holiday Rambler I turned the head of the 3" discharge down, but the port below it was installed in a location that wouldn't accept the 3" discharge hose or any extension adapter.  I had to remove the 7" port and install a 10" port then it worked perfectly.  Yours may be OK, but it seems the discharge install was at the mercy of how much time the installer took to align it, mine may have been installed on a Friday or a Monday if you get my drift?

  10. Greg, not likely.  As you know you can keep them deployed when parked for a extended time, but no way to keep from deploying.  When we stayed in AZ for 3-5 months we had a set of steps with handrail and small deck, I had to crawl under to unplug the coach steps.  I had planned to insert a switch to turn off power to them, but we're selling so I won't be doing that.

  11. Jeff,  you could buy a sheet of 4 x 8 x 1 1/8 tongue and grove and piece together to make it 12' .  If your slide is 2' or less wide/deep you would only need one sheet.  This is what is used for subfloor in new construction.  I thi k it's OSB, which is very water resistant.  I put a chunk of it in a bucket water, left it for two weeks, it didn't swell at all.

  12. Jeff, I do know that there is 1 1/8" plywood that is typically 4 x 8, usually used as subflooring in construction.  I googled 1 1/8" x 12 ft, but not get any hits on it.  You might ask your lumber yard or big box store if they can get it.  I suspect it will be expensive.

  13. Jeff, is it 1/2 "? I googled 12' plywood and they do make it 1/2", but I have never seen it in any lumber yard or home improvement store.  May be because I wasn't looking for it.  I would recommend cdx, exterior grade if the have it, in the event you have water ever infiltrate your coach.

  14. I have the same unit, I bought it because it is portable.   Most campgrounds where we live and often where we travel have many trees that can block the ability to receive the satellite signal, I use 75 ft of coaxial cable so I can usually move it away from the trees.  You might consider keeping it portable and set it on top of your coach yet be able to move it from end-to-end to access the satellites.  Amazon sells a nice tripod that fits it as well.
