It came out of an MCI and I think it is mounted to the cradle

There have been multiple threads on this subject, one I remember was a month or so ago.

Hi, Art…here are two pics. You’ll see the vent line going up in the first pic and the open end at the ceiling in the second. There is nothing inline with the vent hose….just straight 1/4″ DOT line.
Hope this gives you the info you want…
p.s. I had a chat with a seated coach operator, today, and they change their gear oil at 50K miles per the Prevost recs.

RSBolin,
Yes the bus is listed here on Prevost Community !! The pictures look bad because many are sideways… trying to figure out how to fix that…if anyone knows please tell me..
Thanks for the good wishes !!
Cheers, Diane

Last week I ordered New Air Bags. Price was great, $135- $155. I took the fronts off, 63-0126 Mfg 17 Jan ’94, and put the new ones on, 630260. They looked smaller and were, 2″ smaller. On the drive axle I took off 630104, Mfg Nov ’93, and installed the same. The tag had 630259 Mfg 05, 12,and Prevost sent me the same as the drive. Ken told me the book crossed to the 630260 and said the tag was the same as the drive. Prevost still has an air bag book problem. I’m going to Winter Garden tomorrow to exchange for 630259s for the front & tag as per the above message.
I found my rear 6 shocks were original & ordered new ones, would you believe $45 each? I pay twice that for my car shocks.
Also found the R/H tag lift chamber rod broken & ordered a complete new assy, $460. can’t believe the prices.
NOTE: All of my air lines were compression fittings.
Problems. My 12 ton jack stands are 19″ & my 6 to are 17.5, both to high.
To get the air line off of the front shocks you need a 13/16 flare wrench. My set goes from 3/4 to 7/8. NAPA didn’t have one AND could not order one. I cut the air line to get it off and a few days latter found a 13/16 flare wrench at harbour freight.

Hope no one was hurt. With the various tire price programs out there as well as seminars at rallies, you gotta wonder

Why is that a new one? Looks just like the one I have.
BTW, for weekend fun I often go to a Verizon store, tell them I cannot receive texts, give them my phone number so they can send me one, and then I give them the phone to show me what I am doing wrong.
Most of the Verizon people are younger than my phone.

If you or any of us are unhappy about tires and premature aging write a letter to the morons we elect to office.
Because of environmental concerns, global warming, and all of the other so called issues tire manufacturers have had to create new compounds because the government wizards did not like the chemistry of the compounds and materials formerly used. So to make your tires environmentally friendly and probably safe to touch and eat we ended up with tires that do not age as well as in the past.
No one tire manufacturer is immune to the issues. Europe which preceded us in forcing the use of alternate tire compounds has had serious issues with problems such as aging and I predict as soon as the tire manufacturers solve the problem with the development of compounds the idiots will write new laws making those formulations illegal.
Re-elect No One.

Would you expect to see separation in a high end Super C from Renegade, Showhauler, or Dynamax?

Don’t know Harry about your coach but my magnum inverter has a charger built in and leave charger on all the time. Kill inverter when plugged into pole charger on. Just have the one in mine. Turn it on (push magnum monitor button) right before I unplug and hit the road so AC stuff is up, ie, fridge, tv and the like. Before I replaced it had a stand alone charger and inverter. Don’t remember the brand but it quit and installed this one about 5 or 6 years ago. Hope you get the puppy figured out. If not, there’s always a Bandit waiting to help you.

I found that the dipstick was missing an o-ring. Found one at NAPA that fits and now all is alright. I have not been able to find a breather assembly. The one I have does not look like any of the others I have seen on the forum.

I did not realize the Jake could make the drives skid. If so, then the warning makes sense.

Going on 8 yrs. with my 91 XL and have put 40,000 miles since I’ve had it. Bought it with around 49,000 miles. Heck time flies.

I have disassembled all the removeable parts on my tow bars for the express purpose of seeing if there was any needed repairs due to wear.
So far so good and with the exception of replacing the “pin” that was worn to the point the tow bar would not lock in the extended position I haven’t seen any wear that needed replacement. The tow bars are robust.
I’m pretty sure driving in excess or 62.5 MPH and using a cell phone while driving might damage tow bars. That’s just a guess.
