Richard, we think alike. Everything on our coach has to work even if I don’t use it. I could see you actually needing it to help maintain even temperatures.

You could go to a 12R22.5 or 315/80R22.5. I certainly would not go lighter with the 275/80R22.5. Our coach came with the incorrect steer tires on the front that were overloaded and wow did it handle bad! I was glad I caught it and made the dealer replace them before we became a statistic.

I had a feeling, probably a heavier weight rated wheel also.

Correct, the GAWR on the steer axle is the reason for the 295/80R22.5. This tire is capable of carrying 6940 on each to meet the axle requirements. Personally I would leave it as designed and continue with those sizes.

That's how I unhook in front of our house since the coach is pointed up hill, makes a big difference.

Did it come this way from the factory? I am pretty sure the reason for the 295/80 on the steer axle is to handle the weight capacity. What is the steer axle GAWR on the label?

Glad it works. Might be a good time to consider an inverter upgrade at your convenience. Congratulation's on the 50 year milestone!

Nice link! I made this for ours, just twist and it passes above the refrigerator door and below the freezer door.

No words

Glad you figured it out, we’ve all been there.

I know the feeling.

mnikisher, is the alternator the root cause of the draw?

Well, to be honest I only spent $5000 more for our DP

WHY? That’s all I’ve got!

Same here. We've tried to beat those rates many times, never could!

Especially the Trailhawk. The Wrangler can be corrected with an alignment (caster settings adjusted) And those are usually only a problem when they are modified (lifted). Keep us posted.

Glad to hear you are on the path to a permanent repair.

No, the only thing I put on was a Safe T Steer just in case for tire blowouts when my DW would be driving, funny we bought this coach 5/22/2014 and she has yet to drive it beyond moving it around the driveway . While both are Imperials we have different chassis, We do not have the Roadmaster RR8S and no handling issues or concerns.

Eddie, we have a 2002 Imperial 40PKD. That's a good looking coach!

There is no way to reach the top of the fuel tank from a wheel well or any other creative method? If NO, I would try and give it a different fuel source and see how that goes (as mentioned above). My guess is the old fuel line deteriorated somewhere along the way and its either pulling air in or collapsing internally. One time I did see the sending unit on top of a fuel tank rust out, oddly it was only the line to the generator that had the excessive rust.

Front suspension also? If so can you post some photos, just curious what that looks like with an engine sitting over top of it.

Ditto! The only thing I notice is it slightly wanders if they are overinflated (i.e. set to MAX PSI). I top off my pressures to the MAX on the side wall when I park it for the year. One year I didn't think about it and took it on road test after doing some work in early spring. Couple the high pressures with the coach being completely empty and it felt a little squirrely but it didn't ride harsh.

miniedmo, nice looking Monaco coach! Create a signature so we know what it is. Upload some photos in the photo section.

Sounds like either a governor problem, problem with the air line between the governor and dryer or the Dryer itself is malfunctioning. How old is the air dryer?

Rayin, great video! I was going to say, attempt to fix it before modifying it. If the latch isn't working there could be an underlying problem that's much worse. i.e. door structure collapsing causing the door to drop or sag.
