  2. Try stengels first.Air Bags [Springs} Sources https://vanhorntruckparts.com/ http://www.missionsupplyonline.com/ https://www.bigrigcomponents.com https://www.truckspring.com Sdtrucksprings.com http://www.stengelbros.com/suspension-springs/air-springs-air-bags/
  3. That is what they use. It was soooooo handy and fast. No running the engine, etc.
  4. I would. And hope Frank has a plan for the parts availability from a successor, or designated additional coop entity. Replace the components NOW, instated of later.
  5. I meet a guy in Indio, Ca. in 11-2005 at a RV Park who was inflating his coach tires with a powertank.com . He was a distributor for the product. I purchased a 15# Tank and all the accessories for the use of it. I had the tank filled with Nitrogen, MY choice. It was amazing. Filled coach tires from 105# to 110# in less than -1- minute. I installed it in the coach basement, with quick disconnects, and used a 50' hose to air up the coach and toad from either side of the coach. The tank of nitrogen would last 1 to 1-1/2 years between refills, costing between 12-14$ at Gas Supply businesses around the country as we were Full Timers. I paid 495$ for it, and Sold it in Spring of 2014 for 350$. I would do it again .
  6. *****NEW***** Toyo M144 295-80-22.5 dated 2020. *****YES 2020.***** Just installed on a friend's coach, 10-2023. Would you replace in 2027, or 2030? PLEASE, no comments on why did he buy them or how much did he pay for them. Thank you.
  7. SOMETIMES you can bend the hinge with striking it with a hammer enough to accommodate the adjustment needed.
  8. Simplicity at a value. I like it. That would be very attractive for cross country, etc, stopping every other day, etc.
  9. A friend of mine had his Cat ECM go bad. Sent the engine serial number to a ECM retailer, 3 days later, it shipped. Up and running 3 days later. No opinions or speculations.
  10. The paper edition of the WSJ is my daily staple for information and knowledge, delivered to our residence. We full timed 10 years, 2004-2014. A treasured lifetime experience we would never exchange for anything. Having been to 6 continents we feel we can properly evaluate and suggest to others to please do give it your sincere consideration. With the luxury of sites like this as available , it is sooooooo simple to get help on any issue that you could imagine or experience. And there is some validity to; Some timers, Full timers, and then Alzheimer's!!!!!!!!!! Ha Ha!!! Approaching becoming a nonagenarian , I am blessed.
  11. You buy the BEST, or PICK from the rest. THE optimum time to install new shocks and air bags is when you have new tires installed. It's ALL assessable , which saves big $$$ . Soak the fittings/fasteners with 50/50 ATF & Acetone mixture. BEST penetrating agent i have ever used. Use a knife or sawzall and cut the air bag out. So simple and out of the way.
  12. I would buy a coach in Europe and sell it before coming back. The challenges with a Coach size made for this market, are not worth the anticipated enjoyment of the trip. Just address the type/style of trucks used over there for mobility on their roadways. Kinda tells you the answer you need. And the access to shore amenities too. Electrical standards in the EU country's do vary too.
  13. Some ppl use a awning rod to turn the end oblong hole in the drive.
  14. Contamination of the air system in the coach would be my primary concern. Replace it. It MAY be 23 years old.
  15. Lots of ppl are selling take off's for 200$ each. That's what the tire shops get . More demand than supply for sure.
  16. AS an upgrade or replacement in the future, please consider; https://www.microair.net/pages/easytouch-rv-thermostat-replacements-select-a-brand The performance options are terrific. Bluetooth, etc.
  17. I would spend some time considering the Truckers seats available. They are far superior to the OEM one's in most RV's. Mr. Google is your go too.
  18. Great post. The guys at Source really know their business. It is so nice to pay for service WHEN you get it. And after going down the road 3-400 miles it's still performing as it should. https://eliternr.com/120-2/ is another entity I would recommend.
  19. You need to be realistic about the value of the coach and how long you intend to keep it. Those answers will direct you to the resolution that would be appropriate. You really do have some great options to choose from. Good luck.
