  1. How old are they? If older than your current tires have them swapped, obviously all but the steer.
  2. We are running a pilot with Yokohama at work against Michelin (preferred tire for the company). Too early to provide and real data but so far we have been impressed.
  3. Normally yes, your Michelin’s were pretty low on tread when I saw them, heck your LF steer had steel belts showing in the inner edge . I was thankful I didn’t reach in and swipe my had over them
  4. Welcome to the FMCA Forums! You will need to determine (or take it to a shop for diagnostics) what ABS/TCS system you have and see if there is a way you can retrieve fault codes without expensive diagnostic equipment in order to proceed. Do you know what chassis your coach is built on?
  5. Don’t let the last deter you from another brand. Just because they are not on the program doesn’t mean they cannot be used on your coach. There are many other brands out there that will give you good service for a fair price.
  6. My guess...just an assumption. Some pedals hang from the front wall some are mounted and hinge off of the floor. And there is a combination, accelerator mounted to the front wall, brake hinges off of the floor or vise versa. One you pivot your ankle and the other you have to lift your leg. That gets awkward to drive but over time you should become a custom to it. If the OP’s automobile is different I could see where the feel might not be desirable. Or worse yet, he’s not the original owner and someone was up in there and it’s not correct. That’s where the photo would come in handy.
  7. Your only option would be to alter the pedal pad. locating a shop willing to take on that liability will be difficult. That’s a huge risk for a business to take. Anything else would be more of a pain than it’s worth I.e. replacing the valve and lever.
  8. Linda, congratulations, it took me a few seconds...that coach looked familiar, then I read the rest of your post
  9. Bill, I think once the deterioration begins there is no turning back. If it’s nice you stand a good chance of keep it that way.
  10. I’ll pm you so we don’t hi jack this post.
  11. Bill, keep up on the 303 product. I am curious if that’s going to help it hold up longer. I have heard the later product is more durable and better suited to handle UV
  12. Pulling the outside wall access off, reaching into a fire ball and tearing out all of the wires shut it off immediately. Not sure why that was my first thought but it worked. Arm hair grew back and only minor burns that left no permanent marks. I had more heat as a Firefighter from failed fire gear than that, that hair didn't grow back.
  13. I would consider pulling them, take them to a hydraulic repair shop and have them inspected and or rebuilt. My guess is low quality packing inside. Most shops should be able to rebuild them for a fraction of replacement cost with higher quality parts. I sympathize with you, they should last longer!
  14. Mike, are we married to the same woman? you just described my wife! They also must be near an area with shopping and attractions to explore.
  15. I can relate. I wanted to take ours for a ride to shake off some stress. I’m too lazy to unplug it and pull the tire covers let alone a full cover
  16. YUP, ours went up in flames on electric. For the life of me I still cannot figure out why the propane valve opened and the ignition turned on. It was simultaneously!
  17. Yes, we had a member on here in the past with a residential that was from 1997, still going strong. Shocked me as we’ve lived in this S&B house since 1999 and we are on #2. He and his wife were full timers also.
  18. Philc’s recommendation is where I would look. They are designed for outdoor and under vehicle lighting. https://www.boogeylights.com/under-glow-light-kits-for-rvs/
  19. Rich, pretty common on newer equipment that is multiplexed. When one module is missing an input i.e. open ABS sensor the others see the fault and illuminate their lights as well. I just experienced a new truck with a malfunctioning AM/FM radio cause a breakdown! Most newer chassis get the speedometer signal from the ABS module, and most will not move with a wheel speed sensor or ABS malfunction.
  20. Yeah, you cannot make enough power with gasoline to move something as large and heavy as an RV and get decent MPG’s.
  21. ronbrothers, I am a bit confused on what “service fuel programs” is? If you are looking for a fuel card read this post;
  22. Wayne, today is the true chocolate day, it’s all 70% off now
  23. Look again, she shared a two year old post. I had to look twice, confused me also
  24. Same to you and Linda! Also my anniversary, 22 years sure went fast!
  25. 6 years and I still walk around and cringe. Funny, if its one of the cars..Meah who cares!
