Do not give PC dues money to a guy with a truck. Instead bring them to the really good looking guy with a full head of blond hair, muscles, slim build and really great lookng Liberty XLII.

The guy with the truck is one of my people and he will wash your Prevost for free.

Here’s the sealant I used.
And the 2nd pic I believe is the original 1995 brake shoe part#.

Got the hub cleaned, painted, and installed.

I was the one who posted that they would not fit (The Relions). The lifelines are not 20.79 where it counts. They are 20.79 handle to handle – which stick out further than the base.

The 20.79 will NOT fit the liberty classic metal trays. The 19.5 is pretty damn close to a perfect fit. Lifeline and Deka AGM’s will fit that perfectly. However anything longer on that dimension will not fit in the tray.

I have communicated with Relion and they have indicated that those are their footprint dimensions and NOT handle to handle. I couldnt get them to measure the actual footprint as they responded that those dimensions were the footprint. If that is the case – then they will NOT fit the older Liberty classic 3 battery setup. .

And for clarification – Lifeline is excelelnt with their data and provides all their dimensions. And i can confirm that lifelines and Deka will both fit the Liberty 3 battery tray, but its almost an exact fit. The exact Lifeline dimensions are 196L x 10.22W. it is NOT 20.79 as listed on the dimension.

There is no comparison between pulling the driveshaft and pulling an axle. No matter how fast or good someone is about dropping the driveshaft, I can beat them hands down and not expose myself to the risk of a bus falling on me.

Remember, the reason to pull and axle or driveshaft is the engine may not be running and that means the air to raise the coach may not be available and there also may be no way on the shoulder to support a coach with out the support sinking into the ground.

If no air cage the brakes, but if no air you aren’t raising the coach

Moisheh: Donnie Meyers could fix that kitchen problem in a couple of days.

Sorry Roy. But you are part right.

At one time it was discussed that you could mount a 315 on the 365 wheel, but Michelin frowns on that.

Yes the tag is a suitable replacement for a steer 365, but if you do that make sure the tire service company brings a suitable tire for the tag (a 315 is a good choice) but it has to be mounted on a 9″ wide wheel and the wheel has to be for hub centering.

Make sure you have room in the bay for the 365 wheel or plan on putting it in the living room for the trip home.

When mine was towed last year I was expecting cardboard. My wife had already located a heavy piece inside the bus. The tow truck driver had a large collection of plastic “end caps” for various setups. One of them fit the bus perfectly.

Jamie’s email said parking is as you arrive and if you want to be side by side you must arrive together.

I don’t know if they allow non Prevost to be side by side unless they are up to date on dues payment.

Incorporating Pressure Pro with your Crestron system provides a lot of options.

Here is a pic of mine

On my older Liberty:
#1 is water trap for aux compressor air. Mine came with only one, I added a second.
#2 is a Versa brand 120v normally closed aux air solenoid valve
#3 is a Pumptrol brand 120v pressure switch. Mine is adjustable, take the cover off, I have mine adjusted to turn on the aux compressor when pressure drops to < 50 psi , and it shuts it off at about 70 psi.

I have recently carried out the same work on my 95 Marathon, the procedure that you posted is what i used to set the end float on drive axle bearings and it is listed in the Rockwell / Meritor Manual,

I found that by flipping the intermediate locking ring altered the end-float by 2-3 thou, i ended up with 3 thou each side end float.

I used the scot seal seals, they fitted fine and i believe they are a good seal.

I also took this opportunity to change over to synthetic 70/90 gear oil for the diff.

Prevost manual also recommends using silicone on the drive shaft gasket,

Gordon

Thanks for the info.

Question: The parts manual list 2 different seals? # 621069 for “Oil”, and 621101 for “Grease”? Of course we run “oil” in our differentials, but Jon posted the “grease” part#(621101) in his post? Am I missing something?
