Have you still got this oldie on the road. Mine is a 1978 Dodge wickes 2000.
The 78 has a 3300lb front axle. The 79 has a 36000lb. Has anybody found parts for the front axle if it's got duelies On the rear.
The part number for the rotor is different than the single axle. The duel #4037876 and the single #4037875. The book that I found says the 875 works for b,cb,mb3,d. Thats all single axle. Just from memory that is. I think that the rotor is bigger because of the rear end having more humph.
The camper section sleeps six and it goes by the name of "Empress" and model starts #20CDL as such I take it that it's a twenty foot made in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada.
Anyone around this thread anymore?

How many of us in Class C own Dodge B300 incomplete

Delta RV. I would like to ask, and offer, help, idea
swapping and comparing notes on our particular RV's
which are based on the Dodge B300 van chassis.
Yeah, I know. These are low tech, podgy old RV's that
would be considered "entry level" for folks like me,
but I have a deep and abiding respect for the quality
of these old "monsters of the open road". And anyone
wanting to pick brains, joke about, share notes or just
brag about our old A- Dodge-io's are certainly welcome
to PM or email me. Between all of us we can form a real
good support group, and help each other with problems
we know we'll encounter with an older vehicle.
Sure. I'd love a new RV. But I'd rather have an older
one already paid for, and a lotta great memories. Call
me frugal, an old hippie, or whatever you will. I'm proud
of my old land yacht.

P.S. Mine's a '72. Is there an older one out there someone's
motorvating in? Maybe even a Travco? W/K
