    Here is one I took this morning, I watched for over an hour of trying to back it under the cap and finally they did.  I thought that both vehicles would be driven separately but no, hooked up the TOAD and took off. The Eagle Cap had two side slide outs and one rear slide out. Looked it up and it is 100 sq ft when extended.

    WHY? That’s all I’ve got! :wacko:

    The newer Jeeps have had issues with the death wobble, this may be your case.

    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.

    Problem fixed!

    Thanks to all for your time and info.

    Talked to my diesel repair shop and he led me through bypassing the air-dryer.  Two new wrenches,  $10 in fittings and dryer is bypassed.  I now have 130psi to the coach again.  Driving the RV to the repair shop next week for a new air-dryer and my annual fluid/filter changes.

    Pat

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

    Same to you Jleamont, did you install the watts system on yours? Mine really drove terrible until installed the front and rear watts with the crossbars.

    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 :lol:. While both are Imperials we have different chassis, We do not have the Roadmaster RR8S and no handling issues or concerns.

    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.

     I have no interest in either PPA or this new RV resort. PPA just announced this in an email:

    There has been many discussions this year about the shortage of RV parks,, and sites. This new 1,000 site resort might help relieve the shortage in Florida.

    https://resortatcanopyoaks.com/?CID=mvbrief_passport  is an FMCA member RV resort.

    That email also announced Hackberry RV park in Cliifton, TX joined PPA.

    I have no interest in PPA but I do like the resort, its location leaves a bit to be desired, its not close to anything of interest. Looking through the photos one looked familiar. They used a photo from a Campground in Delaware :ph34r:. And that photo is actual, we stayed in that exact site in Delaware!

    I'm sure glad that I have air ride, smooth ride even with tires inflated to max. Or is there something wrong with my coach? LOL💤

    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.

    And the purge valve is releasing  right after I start the couch

    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?

    What size is this unit? Cruise America has several size RV's. We considered this as an option when we were shopping for the 1st time. I wasn't impressed with their "refurbish process" and there are just somethings that those RV's went through with multiple inexperienced drivers that you just cannot undo not to mention the amount of miles that were on them and at the time they were way over priced. From memory they were around 110,000 miles, on a gas engine that was a rental, that's some hard miles on a not so robust powertrain. 

    We ended up buying a class c used that was on consignment for less money, one owner that took care or it, with 50,000 less miles.
