Thank you, mine isn't that great either. I looked through a bunch, saw specs for 5/8 but not for my 1/2. I'll call around tomorrow n c what I can find out and post it. thanks again..

Good afternoon all, wondering if anyone has replaced the rear axle flange gasket and if so, do You recall the torque value on the flange nuts with a washer? Mine is a 12 bolt. I have looked around the forums, and nothing specific and a lot of different numbers. 2007 RR8R HR. thnx

Look into Restore FX, it's a company that restores clearcoats, not sure if they have them in your area, you'll have to research. There are videos of some pretty bad clearcoats they made look new. I too have some spots on the rear and both front and rear caps that need to be repaired. I will soon be contacting them time permitting, for now I'm safe as mine is stored inside.

Costco if you have one, I paid $104.. Interstate

you can get them in stainless and different lengths, 24 gauge to 1/4. you can purchase individual sizes in smaller packages

Look into your Turbo Air Control Valve. I found it for $359, lot of places had it for 7-800. In a nutshell I had blk smoke, no power at take off, turbo kicked in at about 7-10 lbs of boost, blk smoke while cruising. I discovered after waring it up to temp, shut it off for 10-minutes restart and worked normal. Took it to cummins for computer update no diff. Old time mechanic at cummins saw my issues a few times and suggested the control valve. $1500 there but they didn't have it in stock, I found it for $359 and took a chance. Solved my problem. I don't if your issue can be solved by this but it's certainly worth looking into. It took about 15-minutes to replace, sits on top. Mine is a 400 ISL

use this and you will never have an issue again get it on Amazon VIGRUE 150pcs #8-32#10-24 1/4"-20 5/16"-18 3/8"-16 Carbon Steel UNC Rivet Nuts Assortment

My issue was the connector through the wall, the connections were weathered, I replaced the connector with wires connectors. hollowed the fitting, cut the wires offset so they would fit. Awning worked much better, bit it's still slow, although I do have a 4' shade attached, so they will do it. It would be nice to know what size wire is feeding it, may be just too small, but I have other priorities first

good luck to you, the left hand bit like i mentioned worked probably 80% of the time. just go slow, looking for grabbing not drilling.

Congrats, do you have room to tack weld a small bolt the the broken off bolt.

Darn, ok I replaced mine because the shaft was spinning. If yours is like mine, the shaft that connects to the awning is round with a flat spot. That is the only thing keeping from unraveling. That eventually rounds out on the edge’s. (mine opened on the road with very high side winds, not fun) I drilled through the flat spot of the shaft and put a small grade 8 bolt through, that will not happen again. The motor as mentioned above is nothing more than a window motor. Regarding the wiring I hollowed out the connector and ran new wires through which increased power. Cut the wires offset to make it easy to feed through I can pics when I return home tomorrow if you need them

Does the motor spin at all and it doesn’t roll or does it do nothing?

Sorry I don't know how much room you have, but one of the tricks is to SHOCK around the bolt with a heavy duty punch/hammer. If need be cut the punch down, soak the stud with KROIL lubricant. Then try a LEFT HAND drill bit, slowly drilling it, heat and shock works a lot of times and when I used to turn wrenches, more times then not the left hand bit worked best. Many like already listed above work as well, but the left hand bit can go deep and you never know when its going to grab. Just go slow, you are not trying to dill it out you're trying to get it to grab. I replace those bolts with new most of time with a very small amount of oil, the oil won't change the torque value. Good luck, that jobs sucks!!!

We use Irish spring in bays, mothballs at the tires AND since we are plugged in to shore power, I use a heavy paper plate, cut a slit in it to the middle n slide it of the electrical cord cutting off their bridge to the rig. The mice can’t get around the plate, it a trick we use on our houseboat.

Mine kept blowing the fuse. they replaced the compressor, the fuse kept blowing. the short was in the condenser fan motor. replaced fan nor more problems with the fuse

Silicone is NOT over rated. When I had my hoses replaced I used silicone on any one we could, less worries for me anyhow.

Exactly, I am pretty mechanically inclined and back in the day I managed an automotive shop. To this day I still do all of my own work because of the trust issues, unless it's something beyond my capability (still learning about diesel) or covered by warranty. I'm not knocking all shops, there are some very reputable shops out there, it's a matter of finding the right one.

When I had my turbo replaced they put in the green stuff, the wrong stuff because I went from an average of 182 degrees to 192. I went to the OAT, I flushed the system 3-times. Now I run 179-180. You will probable never have to change it again.

You have worked for retirement, everyday is a Saturday except SUNDAY! I retired several years ago at 55 and never looked back. Having too much fun doing whatever whenever. Each morning when I wake up I thank the lord. Many great ideas previously mentioned, lots to think about. With all the knowledge the other guys have on this forum he doesn't need training. Good luck on whatever endeavor (not the motor home) you choose.

I wonder what he charges. I have seen others for $400+ mine looks good but it would be nice to know. Thank you

Thank you for the responses and tank info. Not sure where the hoses go but I will soon. Going to replace them as well since I'm in there. These were supposed to be changed 6-years ago when I asked to have every single water hose replaced.

Yeah no clamp on it, I'm sure the fitting is leaking because it turns easily. I'll cut it tomorrow and see what's what. The hose doesn't have much play to it. I'll probably get in there and put on a new hose as well. I just wanted make certain I wasn't going to do something to the tank. Thanks, enjoy the weekend..

Good evening all, Just wondering if any of you dealt with this fitting before. My Rad overflow tank is seeping out of the front screw and one of the top fittings. the top fitting has a yellow ring around it, just wondering if this is something special before I rip it off. Already re-sealed the front one. Thanks! And Happy Memorial weekend to you and a special thanks to all of the Veterans!!!!!!!!!
