Hi, I have a 2003 Monaco Roadmaster R4R, Cayman 34, DP, and my front hub is leaking. I need a Part Number, any help appreciated.Thanks

You may have to pull the old seal to get the correct part number.

Are you planning on fixing it yourself or getting the parts together for a shop to do it? If a shop is doing it chances are they'd have one in stock.If you're doing it as mentioned you could take it apart and chances are NAPA would have one in stock. It should be a pretty common seal - should be.

I need a Part Number, any help appreciated.ThanksI've done a couple of those seals and, it's a fairly straight forward job. I have the part number for my rear but, not my front. If you decide to tackle this job yourself, do not, repeat DO NOT, remove the wheel and tire AND THE HUB AS A UNIT! While some shops MAY do this as a time saver, a D/P wheel and tire hovers around 120-140 lbs, depending on tire size and all that. Adding a drum or disc to that is just adding more danger in moving that large mass around. Then, it's more of a pain in the a$$ to get the bearings adjusted with all that counter weight. So, just remove the tire and wheel, then remove the hub. As for you NEEDING BRAKES TOO, well, not necessarily. That depends on a lot of things. If your seal has leaked enough just to make a spot or two on the front shoes, it's highly possible to EXTRACT that oil from them. I've done it a zillion times. I've used the brand name "Brakleen" quite a few times but, there's others on the market for the same purpose. If, the shoes are severely coated and saturated, well, then it's more than likely time for shoes. And this all is assuming you have SHOES. You might have pads (disc brakes). But, in any case, it's not hard to pull the front hub, turn it over and find a part number. Amazon beat all the local auto parts places when I was searching but, that's not always the case. It pays to shop around. Some of those seals run upwards of $40-$50 or so. Good luck.Scott

Thanks eveyone, I guess I will tackle this job myself. I saw a write up from a guy that made himself a tool to remove the wheel and the Hub, not as a whole unit but seperatly. I will replace the brake pad at the same time and check the brake disk, my galiper look ok but I might change it too, it is a 2003 and maybe time to replace it.I just wonder what is the torque or adjustment for the bearings?

"Kidoo".....Your Cayman has drum brakes. Where are you seeing a caliper and disc?

Call this company.....they specialize in Monacos. They may have the seals, or at least the part.

Well, I just had the rear caliper and disc replaced, I took it myself to the garage. I will do the front, yes I have disc brakes!

If it helps, just today I was scanning all my old receipts into digital format and I found the one where I repaired this exact same problem in 2013. I had it done at the Freightliner dealer (most expensive place) and they replaced the brake pads. Total charge was $294.90. I'd gladly pay $300 again over trying this job myself.

Do you have part number for the seal?

No, but I don't have the same motorhome as you either.
