    The burned wiring was with the original A model and to be safe, regardless of which model was installed owners were asked to fuse the wiring to and from the monitor.

    I use an Acoa valve stem stabilizer extension kit. The holes in our wheels are 1.5 inches, the kit for 22.5 inch wheels is for 2 inch holes, but the kit for 19.5 inch wheels fits 1.5 inch holes.

    No experience, yet would ensure before departure the heating device(s) in your water plumbing bay is operational.

    Yours may or may not have a separate thermostat inside the bay. If so, would set it very high to ensure the distant corners away from the heater also get as much heat as possible.

    Have always said if we were to travel as you describe, would add an additional small, 120vac ceramic heater in the side opposite of my plumbing bay Webasto heater fan.

    GOOD LUCK and hope all stays warm!

    Please report back and let us know how it goes!

    My open roads app on Android is working fine. If I uninstall and reinstall is just asks for user name and password. Even without entering that info it still displays all the fuel stations in the area so I generally don’t even log in.

    The Open Roads App on my I-phone works fine just now. Have not had amy issues in the past either.

    The ladies at TSD work the purchases, not the computer. So they would be limited in their ability to fix software issues there or on your phone. Again, mine works great.

    Download app and enter account should be all you have to do. Your info is retained at TSD.

    I managed to get an o-ring, A006, which seemed to fit well. However, it still leaks, so I ordered a genuine Kubota “Jet Start Cock Assy”, p/n 14311-60504. I did find many non-OEM Kubota parts out there, but there were plenty of reviews stating they leaked, so I avoided those. Once the part gets here I’ll report on its performance.

    Approximately what is the cost of this upgrade?

    Correct. Li batteries can be discharged (used) when the battery cell temps fall well below zero F, and can be stored unused in very cold temps (battery dependent), but can be safely recharged only if battery cell temps are above about 28 degrees F. Built in battery heaters turn on when battery cell temps go below about 28 degrees F and there is charge current present at the battery. If no charge current is detected the heater does not come on so you can store your bus without discharging the batteries even in very cold weather. Once the battery cell temps go above the set point (battery dependent) then the Battery Management System turns off the heater and will allow charge current to flow to the battery to recharge it. So, other than the additional cost, it is a transparent process that is very beneficial for the user with no downside. I highly recommend you consider adding this option if you are considering conversion to Li batteries.

    BTW, many Li batteries are now being supplied in stainless steel cases. Make sure the lids fit properly and are attached with SS machine screws going into threaded inserts in the case. Watch out for some using cheaper SS sheet metal screws to attach the lid which can potentially result in sharp points present inside the battery – not a good idea!

    I finally finished my Grease Slinger cover for my Old style Fan drive. Pictures to follow once the sun goes beyond the back of my bus.

    It’s the same on a 45″ liberty, but that cover is under the cabinets.

    When I put sound deaden material back there I cut around the bolt holes
