  1. The following was taken out of the service manual on Bendix Spicer slack adjusters. "The clay based grease is OK but I'd use lithium on the auto slack adjusters and the rest of the coach. But never Moly ". Sorry for any confusion I may have made/done.
  2. Bruce ; Maintain the components that require that will provide the results you want. Neglect is self induced. Doug ; Cruise was 6.2 MPG over 7900 miles. The increase in CFM's and straight pipe was amazing. Accelerating thru 1st, 2nd, and 3rd was great on the X way entrance ramp. Climbing elevations too.
  3. MOST grease 2day are/have a clay base. THAT is what I would use on the entire chassis. Slack adjusters especially.
  4. Reducing back pressure is an easy thing to do with obvious performance results. I had a 525 ISX in a 07 Executive i did the following changes to the intake and exhaust components. I replaced the OEM air cleaner with one from AFE, which had a washable filter element and more CFM capacity, same micron spec. Next i replaced ALL the pleated intake hose with rubber fittings and aluminum tubing from intakehoses.com. That's what truckers use. Got rid of all the air friction in the intake. Next was a resonator to replace the muffler from dynaflexproducts.com. Largest MFG. of class 8 truck exhaust components in the U S A. Did not like that so i went straight pipe. . Here is a picture of the results on a screen shot of my Aladdin system. Performance was great and my average CRUISING MPG went up. I cruised at 1350-1400 RPM, 61-62 MPH.
  5. Hi. I have been to your beautiful city many times. Look for a metal tag on the axle. It will have the information you need to order the parts. I would try; https://sourcerv.com/ Scott or Jim. The are engineers and worked at Monaco when your coach was built. They know the Roadmaster chassis better than anyone in the USA. Another is; https://josamusa.com/ Another is; https://www.hendersonslineup.com/
  6. I use, used, paste wax, a heavy coat to fill the porosity voids in the glass surface. Buff, then a coat of RainX. Awesome Yellow to wash off, or dryer sheets to wipe off. Using paste wax seems to cause a build up of filling the pours in/on the glass surface.
  7. Contact https://www.rvcams.com/ Great ppl and may have options for routing , etc.

  9. I would use POR 15 product to paint those . I also would use 11r 22.5, H, on the drive and tag. Same diameter as 295's and will be more than adequate for the weight . They are rated greater than the axle rated carrying capacity and save big $$$'s over 295's. Truckers use them on trailers for that reason. You want a better ride, then use larger tires. Local Truck tire distributor has been selling Kumho for 18 years, Never had a warranty claim for tire MFG. failure.
  10. https://www.dynaflexproducts.com/ Largest MFG. of class 8 exhaust components in the U S A. Measure your, go to any class 8 truck shop, they can order one. A resonator would be a good choice, less back pressure, not much change dB rating. Lots of trucks have one inside their exhaust stacks. The decibel (dB) is a unit used to measure sound intensity and other physical quantities. A decibel is one tenth of a bel (B), a unit named after Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone. Its logarithmic scale is convenient to represent the entire range of human hearing.
  11. Girard has their manuals on line. That does not look like a Girard door awning. Looks like Carefree to me.
