Then I guess the problem with side to side balance is not something that can be attributed to weight associated with the slides.
The fact you have four slides is a testament to Liberty, Prevost or both. My two slide coach is only a thousand pounds less than yours, and slides clearly add weight, but far less than I would have thought given the needed structure and additional weight of mechanisms. The evolution of the designs shows how little the extra slides impact total weight.

THINK I know the problem.
I was leaving the coach in the morning and locking the door with the keypad. Turns out the wife was unlocking from the lock/unlock switch on the dash then opening the door. I kind of understand electrical drawings but not fully. Having said that; If I understand the electrical drawings correctly, the keypad of key fob WILL arm the alarm system but the dash switch DOES NOT disarm the alarm system (need to use the keypad or key fob).
Away from the coach for the weekend, will test that theory when I get back.

What is Geo?

Less than two years ago I believe. Jeff ordered the parts and install them. I’ve had no problems since.Geo

XL and possibly XLII coach owners with Liberty conversions need to be very much aware of two things relating to their Raritan water heaters. First, always make sure the expansion tank is set at the correct pressure. If you cannot find it get its location from someone that knows your floor plan because that expansion tank is an important part of preventing a serious problem.
The second thing is if you have to replace the temperature pressure valve make absolutely certain it is the 75 PSI version and not the more common 175 PSI such as what might be found at Lowe’s.
When you start cold on a trip the water heater is full of water. As the engine coolant reaches operating temp, so does the water in the Raritan tank. That water expands and the expansion tank absorbs that increase in water volume. If somehow you replaced the temperature pressure valve with the 175 PSI valve and the expansion tank bladder is water logged or has no pressure behind it the water that expands has no where to go and the water heater tank ends start to expand. Over time they expand to the point where the tank is literally wedged between the bay floor and bay ceiling.
It is not fun cutting a water tank apart with a sawzall while it is wedged in a bay.

“Like” for Chad’s “zeroed out” comment.
Well, we’re headed Indio for the month of January and Paso for February. I know things are different than any time before, we’ll deal, it’s going to be a helluva lot warmer there than here.
Full disclosure, as careful and as isolated we are here on the farm both Judy and I tested positive a few weeks ago. We let our guard down and attended our grandson’s high school football playoff game, pretty sure that’s where we got it. I had mild symptoms, aches, cough, and extreme fatigue, Judy was basically asymptomatic. (we all know she’s alot tougher than I am) We’re all good now.

I’m pretty sure travel in our coaches is safe. Very safe.
It is socializing that spreads the virus. We escaped house arrest by recently traveling to New Orleans and Orange Beach AL. We enjoyed the change in scenery, enjoyed the local food, delivered to our coach so we could minimize contact with others, and were as secure in the bus as we could be. I doubt a plane, train or seated bus would be safe, but our bus certainly is as safe as we choose to make it.

It looks like Boom has discontinued their AT&T unlimited data plan. My Sprint data through Calyx Institute works great on the road, but is pretty slow for me at home. Any good unlimited plans out there right now with other carriers?

I am going to redo the entire inside of the generator and gen fan bays. Seams are OK with me unless someone says it is a bad idea.
I could figure out the square footage with some getting dirty and measuring, but I was hoping to reserve that for the actual job. Was hoping someone who did the job recalled the amount of material needed.

Who was the lucky seller? 40 or 45 foot?

That is correct for mine but I want to find the double brace part used in some of the future coaches
