A few mods done today
Got the MH out of storage and getting a few mods done!
Installed my Forest River rock guard I purchased from future sales. Easy to install with the provided L brackets that go on the middle hitch bolt!
Installed my surge protector. Easy install but the connection are opposite of my needs. The input is on the top and the out is on the bottom. So I had to run the cable behind and connect it. It is Bluetooth, but it’s weak and drops out when I’m more than 15 feet from the protector. My Mh is 37ft long!
I also vented my generator compartment. It’s at the far rear and has always run hot and dies out when you hit a bump or make a sharp turn or anything that has a harsh hit. I narrowed it down last year to the fuel boiling in the carburetor (vapor lock). It always started right back up. So these lower vents will provide cooler air than what’s under the coach and the rear one will expel the exhaust heat (not exhaust!) I will also be putting 2 at the top of the door to vent the heat that builds up in there. I had my remote temp sensor in that compartment and it can get up to 180 on a 90 plus degree day. I also going to wrap the fuel line and carb.
Still waiting on 5 star to email me my tunes! I know this thing is a tank, but it is a dog and can’t get out of its own way. Ford has it so detuned and the drive by wire is so lagging. I’ve been down to 40mph coming up out of river valleys, I90 in SD coming up out of the Missouri River has me down to 35 at the top, not acceptable!
