I plan to work in the garage today and if my CRS doesn’t affect me today I will get some dimensions.
But I think there are some things that are noteworthy. First I use Harbor Freight air over hydraulic bottle jacks as often as i use my stands. The bottle jacks are multi purpose so with respect to stands they are more valuable to me.
When used as support I leave the jack in its lowest position and raise the threaded center post only.
I always use the support stands at the rear because it is just easier to slide them in position using a steel rod I bent to make it easy to guide them where needed.
Generally between trips I raise the coach and put supports under it, and then deplete the air in the air bags. That allows me to go under the bus at any time because it is supported, but by dumping air in the air bags I think I am helping prolong the life of tires and minimizing flat spots.

Yes, these observations took place while the RV was parked and the parking brake was on. It would be very hard to take the pictures otherwise! LOL.
Just sitting in place I could watch the air pressure go up, the air engine air compressor would kick out and the air pressure would immediately drop to about 110 when the engine air compressor would kick in again.

Chad, is your current plan to use the new mini-split air-conditioning unit(s) with the existing OTR ducts? I’m intrigued! Please share your plan. Thanks, John

So you have a electric car and you need a charge…but we’re out
of fuel….due to the pipeline issue.
Understand where this problem is going ?

my 97 has the switches on the face of the passenger seat wall.
You can hit the bumper open switch when turning the passenger chair.
We had the bad experience of having the bumper open during a rest stop,
driving off with the bumper down (unknown with no alarm light or sound ),
and hit a high curb entering a parking lot, bending the hinge and bumper.So moving the switches to a saver place….replaced bumper.

I do a 3-point turn in my driveway when returning home. Raising the tag helps cut down on tire marks, and allows me to back closer to the edge of the driveway without damaging the grass.

Chad,
I’ll leave the electrical details to those in the know regarding Lifepo4, but when you figure it all out, contact me for Relion battery pricing. Assuming you’ll want 8D’s, here are the choices:
RB100
RB100-LT (internal heater)
RB200
RB300
RB300-LT (internal heater)
You can also talk to Relion Tech with your questions.

I spent a lot of time starring at the air schematics and studying the flow of air from compressor to dryer to wet tank to Primary and secondary tanks and to aux tank it shows check valves protection valves it is pretty nice to see this, I understand the way the system works and you will see when wet tank fills also 2 primary and tanks in rear of bus and see check valve and same time it fills secondary tank and aux tank but it has a delay from filling from protection valve at aux tank so main tanks will reach 75 psi before aux tank fills. I was going to install a wet tank psi gauge but I realized wet tank and aux are the same psi till 75 psi then wet and aux seperate from protection valve so I did not install gauge. Driving down the road if your aux gauge drops from 120 psi to 95 or 100 psi and main tank gauges stay at 120 psi your leak is most likely in aux system. I had a pretty good leak in 1 of my air rams (foot well slide) and driving I watched my aux gauge cycle every 5 minutes or so and every time that happens the compressor and dryer is cycling and purging so now driving down the HWY no brakes being used all 3 gauges stay at 120psi. Now if you have a leak in braking system all 3 gauges drop. Also look at level low system and drive mode all air is coming out of aux system.

Jim, that coach has a 14L S60 with a huge borg warner turbo ..lots of other changes . PDI Utah built a program for it . Fun to drive, hasn’t lost any fuel mileage . Great to drive by a Newell on a big hill with their 625 cat.

Dan, I would like to do this modification. Melissa doesn’t complain about too many things, but the recessed installation of the OEM cooktop, which interferes with cleaning the area, is a topic of frequent complaints.
I would like info on the flush-mount kit.
