    Amazing what you were able to do within that small footprint Glen! Why not use that spare OTR compressor on there?

    I replaced the air cylinder that extends the foot rest over the entry stair well. I had noticed a leak in the steering compartment and after trouble shooting the problem I figured out it was caused by air getting past the seals of the air cylinder that extends the step. Ordered parts from American Cylinder and after a little ripping and tearing the cylinder was replaced. Ps: all this was done on a 1986 Royal XL with crusair in the spare tire area, the leak of air was coming from a Mac 3 way valve in the steering compartment regardless of step position. a check with the factory they indicated the only way for air to be escaping from the valve was a bad seal in the air cylinder. I accessed the air cylinder by removing the carpet and it exposed the 6 to 8 screws holding the slide out step in place and after disconnecting the ram and all the screws I was able to lift the upper part along with the front of the step. there were 4 screws that held the ram in place and 2 air lines. I was able to get a part number and called the O.E.M. American Cylinder out of Peotone IL. (708)258-3980 my part number was 750DV-22 that translates to a 3/4 inch cylinder with a 22 inch throw dual Action. I rebuilt the bracket that held the cylinder. checked alignment and reinstalled the parts. for now everything is working as advertised.

    I have the same problem.

    What kind of coach do you have?

    How did you get at the cylinder? Go in behind the front bumper? Do you have Cruise-Airs behind the front bumper? Or is there another “way in”?

    I’ve had an air leak in my driver-side wiper motor since I bought the coach. It barely functions unless the air pressure is really up there. I finally took the motor apart today to see what was going on, and found that three of the tiny o-rings look a little flat. I had two spares, so I pieced together the best four of the bunch and reassembled. These Sprague Air Push II motors are a pain to reassemble with everything clocked correctly and O-rings in place, but I got it done. The leak is greatly reduced and the motor functions much better, so I’ll order some new O-rings and finish the job soon.

    I tried Jeff and made a mount for the rear bumper but when I let the jack down it jerked the front wheels up 2 feet off the ground. Sooo, the Carrier O5G is still for sale or give away to a needy Prevost owner.

    Mike: what kind of LED light did you use for the docking replacement? I’m having trouble placing where it is on the coach.
