If your maintaining 138 psi, I would suggest you have a governor problem, 125 is the highest air pressure you should have for brake and aux air.

Welcome Doug.. Do we have a Seminar in Vonore, I’ll have to check on that.

Dick, that is so true. Our saving grace was that the bay doors were unlocked and we could get to the beer!
-
what voltage are those lights. I have a broken one and wanted to replace it. Are they 110v AC? 24DC? 12?thanks!

Gary, that looks great..did you have it done or was it there ?

Karl, here is a perspective on cost to help you decide on a deal.
Summer of 2014 (aged 20 years), I did my own labor to install all new brake chambers except the tag lift.
Parts were purchased from Ryder Fleet Products dot com and the manufacturer was Haldex.Steer: from Ryder, part number V19 SC30 $35.60 x 2 vs Prevost part 64-1253 $2504 x 2. These are type 30 chambers.
Drive: from Ryder, part number V19 GC3036 $129.35 x 2 vs Prevost part 64-1181 $2119 x 2. These are type 3036 chambers, i.e. Service brake 30, parking brake 36.
Tag: from Ryder, part number V19 LC3030P $104.92 x 2 vs Prevost part 64-1038 $651 x 2. The Ryder part is a chamber 3030 whereas the Prevost part is a 1624.
Caveats: 1)The part numbers are for my vintage. 2) The tag chamber is larger than OEM and makes a bigger contribution to stopping power. Although there have been no problems such as rubbing on anything, fitment, or locking up a wheel, I’m not suggesting this for anyone else.

Thanks for the comment guys. There is another article in the works. We are always looking for ideas so if anyone has some on what articles would be helpful let us know.

Great explanation Alvie. I had the wrong idea about soft water…

Great looking Bus Dawn!
It’s hard to beat a nice Featherlite, we just upgraded to a ’04 with rear bath, with the Super Slide in the bedroom.
Our ’01 Featherlite sold within 2 weeks after posting it for sale.
I agree with Geo, only noise from 365’s is the expansion joints.
Good luck!

Super installation, Walt. There’s nothing better than great sound at the campsite. Love the blue LED as well. Nice work.

Wow,
Will watch. We do get out of the bus at rest areas. Mainly for one of us to walk the dog and one of us to do a “walk around” of the coach. -
What Geo said. If it is the sensor at the wheel just a tap on the end of it usually resets it into the correct position, however some vintages of coaches had the ABS sensor for the drive axle internal to the axle, and access to the sensor is labor intensive.
Time to trade coaches.
-
Why would a shop remove the drive axle to work on a transmission leak? Or did you mean the driveshaft? Big difference there…….

Tom,
I bet Diane would like to have the job of vetting people for Facebook:)
