What did you do to your Class C MH today???

installed a fridge-fix refrigerator fan, replaced a leaking toilet valve, scraped off a bunch of white stuff on the kitchen sink and replaced a badly corroded drain.

Dumped the tanks and sprayed them out good at our local Camping World today (free with a Good Sam membership). No one in line waiting so I was able to take my time. It gets a good bath this weekend and I head out next week again for a few days at a music fest.

just sold her my class a now awaits

Well, not today.. But recently. I got a pneumatic needle scaler and got to work on some of the rusty parts of the chassis frame rails. It wasnt bad, there were some spots that the factory coating was flaking off, so i wanted to be proactive. After using the scaler (you really want to use eye protection, and hearing protection while you do this) i wiped it all down, let it dry and then got after it with Rust Reformer. I goes on milky white, and the turns black when dry. Here in New England, RUST is a killer of vehicles.

Looked out the rear slider at it. Its only 109 outside today.

I ordered both front and rear Hellwig Sway bars and new Moog sway bar end links, but too darn hot to install them.

Trying to decide which Steering Stabilizer to go with Saf-T-Plus or ?
Not sure what the difference is between Bilstein steering stabilizer at $90 vs Saf-T-Plus at $358 ?

Also the last 2 older MH's on Chevy 3500 chassis we had I replaced the stock shocks with Bilstein HDs and noticed a big difference.
This time around thinking of trying those Koni FSD shocks on the Ford E450 ?

Did the Koni's on my 09 Cambria and the difference is significant. Original owner upgraded the sway bars and recently had the front end aligned and it handles much smoother.

After 5.5 years the faucet in the bathroom developed a small leak. Water would ooze out from beneath the fixture when the water was turned on. It was only a few drops so I ignored it for a couple of trips but today I finally replaced the fixture.

It took about a minute and half to remove the old faucet. A quick ride down to Home Depot and I selected a nice Glacier Bay replacement for $59. The new one has much taller spout that will make it easier to get under the flow.

I also took a few minutes and pulled the house batteries out on their tray and topped them up. One of the two Grp 27's requires disconnecting the cables to be able to get the cap covers off so it takes a few minutes but is worth it too know they are fine. Also topped up the V-10 battery and checked all of the engine fluids and tire pressures.

My "indash" radio runs off of the coach battery. I believe that all Thor coaches are that way so that you can use the radio without having the ignition key turned on or to accessory

Winnebago designed our Itasca for either way to power it's in-dash RV radio. There's a rocker switch right on the dash to switch between a connection to the chassis battery regardless of the ignition key's position .... or the other rocker switch position that connects the radio to the coach batteries.

We just replaced our "piece of junk" Magnadyne radio/CD/DVD player/turn signal and rear camera displays/GPS Navigation unit with a much better units with all the same features plus the added feature of having a telephone Mic so that I can talk on the phone "over the radio." Read that as no hands off the steering wheel necessary. The Kenwood unit is much better than the Magnadyne. Many times the DVD player and the CD player would just not work. Makes it hard to listen to a book on tape while driving. We did not hook up the DVD player to the main television because we watch movies while parked, not while driving. Why wear down the starting battery to watch a movie while parked. We just use a stand alone DVD player that is co-located with the television and uses the coach batteries (and solar power if we are not plugged in). Also, the Magnadyne "dim" switch no longer flashes on then off repeatedly while driving down the road.
