  1. The installation manual of each refrigerator has the opening dimensions required. I'll not do any comparisons, it's your project and your money. Norcold 12110 ultraline installation instructions -pg 6 Norcold 1200 installation instructions -pg 4
  2. Details here: https://www.va.gov/resources/the-pact-act-and-your-va-benefits/ Burial benefits and services pdf: https://www.va.gov/SURVIVORS/docs/NCAQuickGuideADA.pdf
  3. I can imagine the result of it coming loose enough to hook onto the driveshaft.
  4. Sorry for the mix-up. Do not call Paul Maddox, he represents HWH brand leveling systems and slide mechanisms only. Have you made sure the hydraulic fluid tank is full? I think it takes Dextron III, but check the owners manual to be sure.
  5. pspickel, made that one post and has never returned, to read replies or update his status.
  6. Thank you for the advice. Once I thought about it, you're right. A 120VAC fridge must have the 90% efficient inverter to supply power while driving.
  7. Somewhat; the FMCA program offers less services because it costs less. That's why the skymed programs are so very expensive, they provide many more services than either FMCA or GS. FMCA assist is included in our dues each year.
  8. FMCA used to have a disclaimer on their Michelin discount page saying to check the price without going through the Michelin program vs using the program, as some dealers offered a better price so they didn't have to mess with the paperwork. That disclaimer was removed several years ago for reasons unknown.
  9. I agree, my Silverado pickup does the same thing if I rush the shift from neutral, but I don't get any msg.
  10. I would suspect a frozen water line burst.
  11. The only correct answer is, that information will be in the owners manual under recreational towing. As a generic reply, no not yet. Technology has not tackled that use yet. It would have to be hauled on a trailer.
  12. Several results: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=motorhome+captains+chair+seat+covers&atb=v387-1&ia=web An aside; Winnebago puts a tag under each seat with the style, material, color, etc. Perhaps yours also has a hidden ID tag.
  13. Yes I can rebuild it, but it will take a lot of time the way my hands shake. It is a Zenith brand updraft carburetor, on a 1972 Massy Ferguson 135 farm tractor. The engine is a factory conversion of a 3 cyl Perkins engine from diesel to gasoline. And NO, it isn't a recreational vehicle, JIC anyone is curious. 🚜 I'll pick a nice warm day, setup a table next to the tractor in my RV garage and rebuild the carb after the rebuilt kit arrives. This must made me remember, I haven't yet tested the distributor for a short to ground. I've already found the wire from the voltage regulator to ignition key worn bare in one spot, stopped there and failed to do a complete search under the dash for more shorts, or even check out the regulator contacts. Years ago I bought a complete service/rebuild manual for my tractor, should have been consulting it all along.
  14. Exterior body repairs are completed,, they forgot the damage to the dash in the starboard corner and the Xantrex inverter that was ruined by the big jar, that was an additional $7,000 suppliment to the original exterior damage estimate of $6,500. Now the body shop is waiting on Progressive to approve the additional $7K. With any luck I'll get my MH back by April. Then I take it to a different RV repair shop for a new main awning, which only takes one day, and they've had the new awning since Jan. 30..(different claim) If there is a upside, I've had full use of my RV garage for working on my farm tractor this winter. I've narrowed that down to needing a new carb. @ $500, after spending $150 to replace the ignition system-which was not the problem.
  15. Welcome to the FMCA discussion forums! AGM batteries are still lead-acid batteries in a different form. Your inverter built-in charger will have an AGM selection which uses the ideal charging rate for them. A Renogy 200A AGM battery is $380, a Renogy 200A LifePo battery is $461. For the $81 price difference you get true 200A of usable power(AGM batteries should not be depleted below 50% for best battery life) and about twice the cycles of use from the LifePo battery. The downside is, if your MH's charger does not support charging lithium batteries, it should be replaced. Also, you must install a DC to DC charger to prevent burning up the drive engine's alternator. when driving.
