    Anyone know where can get a replacement side window?

    Well, they actually can get it made. They would have to cut it and make the hole and then curve it in an oven and then temper it. It would be very expensive. When I once owned a window/ door distributorship I also sold a lot of glass, mostly insulated double pane but also some strange curved...

    Brake bleeding--new MC and rear disks

    You should try using one of the small conical copper washers that go between the casting seat and the bleeder screw. It will deform to take up the imperfections in the casting to allow sealing. Emery Stora 77 Kingsley Frederick CO > > Thanks all for the final reassurances. The feel is...

    Brake bleeding--new MC and rear disks

    Yes, the original master cylinder does not provide enough volume for six wheel disk brakes, especially if you have switched to 80m front calipers. However, the P30 master cylinder give less pressure to the calipers. There are a lot of different P30 master cylinders. I would suggest the use of...

    House power

    If everything is working on shore power then the cord going into your breaker box and the breakers must all be OK. So the problem has to be either in the cord coming from the Onan or in the 50 amp receptacle that is mounted in the electrical compartment. Since the Onan puts our 120 volts there...

    Rick The last refrigerator that I installed was slightly larger so I installed a little longer roof vent on top. this required cutting the hole a little longer. I assumed that would give more draw. I also installed a flat “pancake” fan in the roof vent but I've found that I have never had to use...

    Haven’t you considered not moving the vent?I have had 3 propane/electric refrigerators in my GMC over the 38 years I’ve owned it. The original vent placement worked very well. There was plenty of draft for the refrigerator without having it directly over the coils. I am sure that dozens if not...

    I just hope that a bunch of you are not going to be sorry that you opted for the cheapest tires you could find. My and my wife’s safety is far more important to me than saving $600 on tires every six years. If one blows you’ll likely have much more than that in body damage. I won’t join in...
