  1. East of Lancaster, just south of Intercourse. https://lancasterpa.com/intercourse/
  2. Brent, welcome! We are from Southeastern PA, otherwise known as PA Dutch Country.
  3. Factor, older coach slides were built much more robust. You would think Technology would have advanced in a good way, it didn’t. When the economy tanked many manufacturers went belly up, their names were bought up by the big guys. That eliminated competition and they found ways to make things cheaper for increased profits. This is the case with almost everything that builds a current RV. That’s were the quality began to decline was also around 2007. Manholt already covered the emissions technology disaster of 2007. I have to agree with Kay, if we had it our way a NO slide coach would be in our driveway now. Before slides manufacturers got good at making things fit for space savings, when slides came along they got careless. Great example, quite a few coaches when closed up you cannot access the bathroom or the kitchen. We pull off quite often to cook a meal and stretch out, bathroom breaks etc. if I had to open my slides to access stuff I wouldn’t have bought this one! I also don’t appreciate banging my head or crawling on my hands and knees to remove items from the basement storage when set up. That’s one reason this coach is only equipped with slides on the drivers side, that also gives me a huge awning to relax under.

    Steer Safe

    You might want to creat a new post, the header would help you get better results.
  5. That's a great chart! I have a friend that appears to be too much trailer for his truck and and going to run numbers on the bumper pull version. Not likely he will listen but....
  6. Greytmom, Welcome to the FMCA forums! Here is a few places to try for used parts; https://colawrvsalvage.com/ http://www.nwrvsupply.com/ https://rvparts.visonerv.com/
  7. Right back at you Ian!! I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!
  8. IMHO, it would be more cost effective to pay for routine tire inspections and replace the steer tires every 5 years regardless of miles.
  9. the first time you said that to me I was lost . If it weren't for Google and a smart phone I might have had the same facial expression
  10. Not common for that manufacturer. It sounds like you figured out why it’s for sale. Life of neglect and shoddy TLC are evident.
  11. bradyjones Welcome to the FMCA Forum Do you need help locating parts or where that component is located on your coach?
  12. Too many variables! Type B, C, A, A-DP, Tag no tag, chassis manufacture is HUGE, probably the largest variable! Tow behinds; Truck manufacture pulling trailer is also HUGE, tire inflation.
  13. TW, Welcome to the FMCA Fourms! If your coach is air brake equipped the M&G system would also save you money. We have a 2014 Wrangler with M&G, love it!
  14. Carl, that's old school Monaco attention to detail, I didn't organize it that way. I just wipe it out every so often to keep it clean. All of the electrical boxes are like that and every wire is labeled. That attention to detail sold us that coach, so much we bought a floor plan we didn't want . Ironically we have learned to love it regardless of what we thought we had to have.
  15. What happened to the factory set up on your coach, not working?
  16. The link is the same unit he is currently using. Sounded like his in inoperative and needs a part. You could convert the system with something else but that would require some wiring alterations as the Monaco design covers all bases.
  17. Friends, we have derailed the OP’s topic. Let’s try and stay on course “Twisted frame while leveling”. Thank you
  18. I just checked the internet and it popped up on a few websites. heres one; https://shop.findmyrvparts.com/monaco-rv-battery-maintainer-LE-415-p/le-415.htm
  19. I am not sure the size of the coach would determine that as much as ones ability to make repairs on the roadside. Being the chassis you have is a very dependable platform my only concern would be tire failure,. I am confident aside from a road hazard you got that covered already
  20. Did you wrap up the last floor you posted on Facebook?
  21. Here is another option to try for parts; http://www.nwrvsupply.com/
