That’s what I had to do to get the pictures to load.

I had the same thing happen in the 2000 H3-45 Featherlite that I had. Not sure how he accessed the cylinder, but Donnie Myers repaired mine.

I’m on the road now and don’t have my copy of the letter, but it came from Prevost. I suspect that there is a copy of it here on the website somewhere. The clutches in question were in a batch that were used as replacements about a year ago I think.

Jeff – thanks for the comment – I believe as soon as I feel like I can get my old ass up off the ground, I’m going to remove mine also!

Dick, he is.
When your trying to help a dumb ass like me it takes a lot of patients.
Just the difference in dialect from Chicago to Louisiana is like trying to talk to a customer service agent for a huge American company that is in Bangladesh.

Jeff has been great to work with. The minor details will be taken care of and the new tires look great! I just don’t know how to operate ANYTHING! What an amazing amount of technology changes.
I will be moving my Trav’ler to the new coach over the weekend but we can’t get any OTA TV reception with the new Winegard Razor dome. Will have to work with Jeff on that one.
We will head out of here next week for TX to get it registered and then it’s back to work!

Joe,
I use the Garmin RV 780, I think that’s right got it from Buddy, and the updates via wi-fi have been very easy, but you need some really good speeds, it takes awhile.

The wrong air bags on the front prevent the front to be raised to the additional 3 or 4 inches above ride height for leveling on uneven RV park sites.
If the new air bags allow full up and down travel at all positions they are what is needed.

Jon, I had no idea you were involved in this. I have a lot of friends that still fly missions. About ten years ago, I flew down to Tyler, TX to bring a pit bull named Jake back to Kansas City. That was very rewarding. Thanks for giving me the chance to do that!

Greg, look at americanblinds.com or blinds.com and see what their Hunter Douglas shades are selling for.
Have used American Blinds on two houses with great success.

Dade, stop seeing and speaking to that dealer. He is full of shit.
Maybe just to be clear, he may be selling coaches he repaired that way so anything he says regarding skins and the condition of the skins on his coaches is suspect.
Skin delamination is a non event on rivet coaches. There have been some scattered but generally rare reports of issues with the skins on the H model coaches. But there have been issues on XLII model coaches. Let’s be real clear on this. When the scope of the problem was made apparent Prevost stepped up to the plate and fixed coaches with skin issues. There were some exceptions to their generosity such as a coach with a questionable service history or heritage, but for the most part if they tested a coach and found any delamination they determined what the fix would cost and usually authorize the service center, often Jacksonville to perform the repairs. They did not pay for the paint work required so the strips that covered the rivets would match the paint job, but they ate the cost of repairs.
Those repairs could have been cheap if Prevost was out to cut corners. But they did not cut corners. They had a well engineered skin repair procedure that totally and forever eliminated future issues and assured that the coach would never have water entry from behind skin panels. It was a very expensive repair and if they wanted to cheat or screw anyone they would have done as the salesman said, slapped some glue behind the panel and sent the customer on his way.
But they did not. I’ll let others on here who had the work done provide you with greater detail, but Prevost rarely failed to pay for needed skin repairs. Now after so many years have elapsed Prevost is no longer supporting the repairs at its expense. that is understandable because everyone was proided with ample notice of the repair program and those that chose to not participate may have had coaches with skin issues.
You may share my comments with the salesman. They are harsh, but accurate in my opinion. Tom and I learned a great deal about the repair process and how Prevost chose to make them correctly at great expense. They did them the right way and paid dearly for doing them the right way.
Having said that. the Nashville service center that does extensive work on entertainer coaches has developed successfully a method of resealing panels without the expense of the rivet process. They have been doing it for a long time now and with success. But it is not easy, it is less expensive than the rivet repair, but not cheap. If you want specifics call the service center because in Nashville they are trained to do either type of repair and can give you some estimates on cost. But like the very extensive rivet repair process the bonding only repair process took a great deal of development, has a relatively sophisticated process and requires a great deal of attention to even the most minute detail. That is why you may have seen a lot of mentions on this forum about only taking skin delamination issues to Prevost and to trust someone lacking the skills, training and knowledge of the materials that need to be employed is not the best choice.
BTW, we are not shills for Prevost. In this case however Prevost stands pretty tall for doing things the right way and for eating as many dollars of good will as they did to get past this issue.
