    Thx to the info from those that had done it I recently replaced my RH side drive axle seal, along with 3 broken hub studs.

    Apparently a success – 30 mile trip for fuel – no leaks, no wheels came off, hub didn’t weld itself to spindle. I did fill the hub with oil AND tilt the drive axle to that side (after topping off) as was suggested.

    If you really want a bunk coach, Your best bet is to look at marathons as they made more than anyone. Geo

    After chasing leaks in the original air system, I put in the jack screw as well. This was a few years ago and I have not had a problem since.

    Probably a good call. The 109 is fast, but it is maintenance heavy.

    New Information.

    If the coach is not leaning and you hear air escaping until the tag axle pressure unloads you have the reverse logic system. But also based on your comment it sounds like the air that is escaping is less likely to be suspension related if the coach does not lean.

    It could be anywhere in the accessory system.

    This is just an opinion not clouded by facts.

    The Grand Cherokee has been extremely popular as a toad. We had one for 11 years and towing it was trouble free. But……..it was a manual transmission (very rare) with 4WD. It tracked very well and was versatile in that with the rear seats folded down it could carry a lot of stuff, and with the seats up it was a comfortable 4 passenger vehicle.

    As to a diesel I have never been able to use the better mileage as justification for the extra cost. My impression of some GM vehicles as toads is that to tow them often involves more than just putting the transfer case into neutral. The Jeep and now our Hummer involve nothing more than that, but some vehicles need fuses removed or the negative battery terminal disconnected. The more that has to be done to make a vehicle towable, the greater risk of messing up.

    On my Legendary (2006 chassis XL2) the VPOD failed giving similar issues to yours. The DD shop replaced it with a reman, but that also failed…in only 35 miles. Had to get another one ordered in and that fixed it.

    They thought it was a boost sensor first, but that was not it. The mechanic said they had lots of VPOD failures in that vintage engine FWIW.

    I got the bug post retirement. After just 17 hours in a C172, I bought a 1987 Beechcraft Bonanza F33A. The insurance companies were not amused ($$$) but it was a great way to learn flying a high-performance, complex airplane. I finished my private pilot ticket a few months later without a mishap. My user name “Threegreens” hints at it.
