    I just placed an order with Verizon for an IPhone 7 and an IPad for Jon. He saw Buddy’s Smartphone with an app to measure the degree of incline for his driveway and that put him over the edge. There may even be a Blue Ray in his future.

    I’m going to do a better job of watching Andre and his camera. That picture was taken out of context, I was simply explaining to Nance how fortunate she was to have a non slide bus.

    Nacy explaining to Tom how much she wants a 2 slide H-345

    Nancy expaining to Tom how much she really wants a 2 slide H-345. Hard to believe that Tom will “never” buy a 2 slide bus when they checked this one out at least 3 times. Picture supplied by a protected source.

    I cannot get the little rotation arrow to rotate the pictures. What is the secret?

    Of course, the recient photo just shows Jon on the phone AND laying down on the job so maybe it is oriented correctly.

    Parked in an “older” RV camp site. As you might guess there were electric issues from the get-go. Bill C.took care of that this morning with about 6 electrical contractor trucks, couple of boom trucks and about 10 workers. Feeder line on pole upgraded to increase amps. All taken care of by 11:00 am. All good.

    Well as it turns out the batteries were the problem. We did get them charged enough to start the bus and batteries are being replaced (all).

    Jon, thanks for your concern and I heed your advice!

    Couldn’t do without this forum.

    It should be in the front service compartment (where the steering gear and windshield washer bottle are located). It is mounted on the ceiling of that compartment in that year.

    Tom & Bill,

    My Marathon is currently at ETLC getting a bunch of upgrades including Pressure Pro Pulse. Marathon Oregon originally installed my Pressure Pro 3 years ago down by my left knee which has caused 2 big problems. One, there was not a clear signal to the repeater in the bath, so my toad, tag, and sometimes drive tires would not show up. And secondly, the position of the monitor was not in the driver’s clear line of sight so I had to bend to the left and take my eyes off the road to read it. Changing tire positions on the monitor was not fun even when not driving.

    Jeff is mounting the new Pulse right in line with the rear view mirrors which makes a lot more sense. I’ll post pics once I retrieve the coach in 2 weeks.

    Since one of its reported benefits is getting water out of your fuel, I suspect the desired results from the two previous medications might not be one of its benefits, but it should stop bloating due to water.

    October 22, 2016 at 9:47 am in reply to: Front brake rotor swap

    John, the oem tag chambers on my vintage were 16/24. I’ve never known what the numbers mean except that the bigger the number, the more air volume the chamber uses, the more braking force is produced. The first number is the service brake and the second number is the parking brake. Since my tag and steer use the same rotors and pads, and since the steer is a 30 chamber, I wanted the tag to provide more braking contribution than the 16 was providing. The risk is, as Jon mentioned, the tag could lock up or kick in the ABS on low traction surfaces. But since the tag is positioned on the back and since it carries only about 8,000 pounds while the drive carries 27,000 pounds, I was comfortable with the risk. Though the braking performance is now better, I can never be happy with the stopping ability of our rigs.

    Jon, the maintenance manual that came with ours says to tighten the hub adjustment nut to 100 pounds while turning the hub in both directions, then back off, then tighten again to 50 pounds, then back off 1/3 of a turn and done. Spec run out is 01″ – 10″. Since the adjustment nut had no flats to use any kind of wrench, did not use any torque specs. But did tighten it with right angle needle nose pliers until the hub would no longer turn, then backed it off about 1/3 turn. Did this a couple times. But the confirmation of adjustment was after installing the two indexed washers and jam nut, that I had prexactly the same amount of stub axle thread showing through the jam nut as before I started. The jam nut spec is 300 pounds and is what I did.
