Started with some things a while back and began with pulling the gen-set out. Found a blown stator winding and have that job on hold, while I think about, how best to spend the repair money. I would like to find a used stator or the generator itself somewhere.
Next, a new camera and monitor, which I installed today. Works nice in the driveway, so far and for a give away price at Amazon, so just hoping it's for long term. Re-adapted the existing wiring from the old voyager and along with some mounting mods, it all worked out, better than expected.
The last inverter I last installed, went out, so pulled it out and have a new one coming from Amazon, as well.
Forgot to add my front suspension upper bump stops that I recently replaced. The stops are cheap and easily replaced, once you learn the trick of using the jacks for raising the coach just enough for slipping them in place and then putting them on down for forcing them in place.
With these upper stops, they could be long gone with wear, tear and rot without one ever realizing it. Unless you hear the clanging from a return with bottoming out of course. What was left of them and even though alerted with one falling out in the driveway, was a flat pancake looking thing, whereas the new ones are pear shaped and you wouldn't guess they were even the right ones for it. They're like $11 each from your local Chevy dealer and not even worth ordering from a supply house. Auto Zone can order, but has their wires crossed and show the cost at around $75ea...lol. Other stores call it a dealer item and online stores want about $5ea plus shipping.
