    I don’t have the shutters or the frame so I guess I’m going to have to improvise! I don’t remember removing any type rubber, just the meta frame around the shutters!

    This is thread creep. Sorry

    Gil, I replaced about 6 windshields on my 2 XL coaches over 22 years of owning them. With one exception they went well, and the exception was ironically when Rob Russell and I were putting it back in after his guys helped get the refrigerator into place.

    I used a new gasket. Rob and I, both experienced in windshield replacement beat on it, soaped it, shoved it, and then had one of his men try to help us work it from inside the coach. We gave up and used the old gasket. 20 minutes later the glass was in.

    I never used any sealant on a windshield. I also never had a leak.

    If a windshield does not slip into place easily either the glass or gasket has a problem.

    Bob,

    When Tom and I created this site our intent was for anyone to be able to use it to access the forum or get articles or help if needed. Sharing is what this is all about.

    I noted you refer people to it on BCM and BNO and that is great. Let them know if they want to ask questions on the forum all they have to do is register. No charge. Free.

    The more folks that are on here participating, the better we all are. Guys like you, Ken, Clifford and other creative homebuilders really make a contribution and we appreciate it.

    I’m surprised I haven’t seen more super singles on late model coaches. I can’t imagine why anyone would pay the price for a super single on a tag. Nonetheless, I bet it looks cool.

    Ken,that is too simple you need to check and make sure they manufacture a hub piloted wheel that the bolt circle and the hub center is the same as your they come in all different flavors.

    We had to buy new hubs for the front and tag on Kevins 91 model we couldn’t find Alcoas with the right patten and center circle it was easy for rear

    People scare me when they just change the studs and use the same wheels from a stud piloted on the hub piloted not the way I would do it but you see it done

    good luck

    FWIW, my Liberty is plumbed in plastic with mostly grey colored fittings. Over the years, I’ve had multiple fitting failures (never a line itself) and have been replacing/replumbing with brass compression fittings in sections. I have never been able to tighten a plastic fitting to resolve a leak.

    Had the drivers side window replaced last week in my 1991 at Prevost Houston to the tune of $1040.42. Labor was 6.8 hours — 741.20. Parts—$299.22.

    I have two of these in my inverter bay as well and are hooked up to a thermostat. It was set at the lowest point which I think was 75 degrees and they ran all the time. After the fans failed, I bumped it to 90 and they run a lot less. Hope they will last longer this time.

    unhook the hot wire from the burner first, that will prevent the burner from starting while there is air in the system

    I have the manual, but no joy on any adjustment instruction or information. Not sure if it’s turning at the correct rpm’s, but it does not flucuate when I load it up and stay’s steady.

    Responding to my own question, I found the thread where you discuss the TapeCoat failure. I will have a look at mine this weekend. The good news is I don’t allow anyone on the roof. As of last summer, it was holding up well with the exception of one small spot……
