Both front air bags looked just fine mounted in position. You have to make up your mind to replace bags over 10 years old. Visual exam fools you in thinking all is OK looking at the bags. The age damage is where you can’t see, In my case the fronts as pictured were the worst .

Our automatic Winegard Trav’ler (Dish) locked on all three without a problem yesterday (Wednesday). The aiming is totally independent of the receiver being off or on. This is not the in-motion dome.

Ok, so if you manually raise the front of the coach all the way up, does the front end come down to ride height? It also sounds as if the rear of the coach comes up to ride height with out any issue.

The only issue we ever had was with our first Roadmaster Stowmaster 5000# tow bar. One arm would not lock due to a failed spring. There was no issue of the car separating but when the arm does not lock it allows the arm to go in and out and the car moves around behind the bus accordingly.

I wouldn’t want to carry a spare because of all the extra weight to be dragging around so I have disassembled my tow bars (I have three) and inspect them periodically. They are pretty simple. I have bought the internals from Roadmaster if I see any indication of wear.

I have the original Stowmaster #5000 unit, a #6000 All terrain that uses the bumper hitch, and a #10,000 all terrain that goes in the coach receiver. Depending on which toad we bring dictates which tow bar we use.

Austin,

Lon at Florida Luxury Coach, a few years ago told me that he had the wiper blades and arms sandblasted and polished on an H I bought from him, and that he did them all the time, and for not much money. They are stainless.

I’ll text you his cell, maybe he can tell you who and where does that.

I’ve had them on 3 coaches, and never have had a problem with glare, or anything.

Bugs certainly clean off easier than the flat black ones too, and you don’t have to worry about chipping of the black.
