- pianotunaNomad IIITurned on the fantastic fan in the roof vent. First time in 2017! (May 4th)
- Travelin2ExplorerPhil, That's exactly how this one works also. It has a manual switch just inside the entry door that when in the off position, the step will go out when the door is opened but will not go back in when the door is closed, so that when you are camped the step is not going in and out constantly. If that switch is turned on then the step follows the door...open door=step out....closed door=step in.

Yesterday I installed the brain-box on my electric step so it has the "last man out" feature. I used an LED strip light for illumination.
Hmmmm .... my Itasca's electric step came from Winnebago with an electric step that: A) Whenever the ignition key is turned OFF and the step is in, the first time the coach door is opened the step goes out and stays out, and B) whenever the ignition key is turned ON the step goes out each time the coach door is opened and goes in each time the coach door is closed.
The above have proven to be perfect operating modes for our step. - suprzExplorerInstalled new rear sway bar end links, and bought some more LED's for the coach
- ericsmith32ExplorerOrdered the Roadmaster steering stabilizer! Curious to see if it helps. Don't know if the alignment really did much for the effects of the wind. It did help tightened up the steering at least. Going to Colorado end of May so getting it ready for trip.

Our 2005 Winnebago Aspect was a GREAT coach that we really liked. After much work on the suspension, it handled very good for a E450 motorhome.
I just purchased a new Four Winds 22B Class C with the Ford E-450 chassis. What items did you add/replace to make your's handle better? Mine is definitely a handful, especially in the wind.
Thank you
Google "E450 Caster" for a solution to "loose steering" and "wandering" issues. - RonaldEddExplorerOur 2005 Winnebago Aspect was a GREAT coach that we really liked. After much work on the suspension, it handled very good for a E450 motorhome.

Thank you - woodworker414Explorertwo new coach batteries. And a good wash, to get the road grime off from the trip back from FL>
- Desert_CaptainExplorer IIIHaving just returned from a 9 day, 1,500 mile roundtrip to southern Utah it was time for some serious cleanup. My bride tackles the interior while I assume all exterior duties. A thorough de bug treatment, complete wash down and the application for a fair amount wax {but not a full wax job}, completed the exterior cosmetics.
I have to replace or repair a small leak at the bathroom faucet and the rear hatch cover has developed a crack after 5 years. I've already replaced the other two so this should be a simple repair/replacement. No other mishaps. On this trip we turned over 41,000 miles in a little over the last 3.5 years and just keep on having waaaay too much fun.
:B - tenbearExplorerLooked under the hood to see if there was any obvious damage, then looked around inside to see if there were any water leaks, or other problems, after the winter. Happy to say there were no problems found. Next comes the dewinterization process.
