- ArchHoaglandExplorerI have a 2004 Monaco La Palma 36 DBD and it turns pretty sharp for a big coach.
I have no idea what the turning degree is. My engine is the GM 8.1.
Make sure the dash gauge is working correctly, especially the digital LCD readout. They are made by Actia and are a problem. I'm on my third one.
Other than that I'm a happy camper. - Tom_NExplorer47°
Quoting Workhorse's chassis manual below.
"all W Series chassis built after August 28, 2002 will have a
wheel cut angle of 47 degrees. Starting January 6, 2004 all W Series chassis
wheel cut increased to 50 degrees." - harold1946ExplorerIf its a Workhorse W22 the wheel cut is 50 degrees.
- Peaeye10445321ExplorerThank you. I am looking at a 2002 Monaco LaPalma 34 on a Workhorse chassis.
It has 76k on it but has been taken care of. Right now I have a fifth wheel but I think after this season we are going to a mh and the Monaco looks good. - WyoTravelerExplorerYou can measure it with a protractor. Draw some lines when parked on concrete. I also need to measure my Monaco Monarch. The Monaco gassers are no more. Fleetwood parent is only building the Dynasty top of the line diesel. Monaco built some of the best gassers on the road. They built diesel quality into gasser MHs. The problem was they competed with cheapo gasser MHs. The gasser MHs have diesel quality interiors, fiber glass roofs etc. The problem was no market for a high quality gasser. They were almost giving them away.

- Peaeye10445321ExplorerSorry it's a gasser
- mtrumpetExplorerGas Diesel? Would help to know what chassis you have?
52 and 55 degree seemed to be common on many DP's. But again, it will depend on your chassis.
