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

Hey all,

Any of you who own a vintage Dodge B300 Sportsman ever replace the sole gray/back water tank? The one that I have has held it's last (it's falling apart). It is a round tank so I seriously doubt I would find a similar replacement and will most likely end up using a Barker/Thetford/Tote-N-Store tank if I cannot find a replacement.

Looked at it, considered washing it, too hot out, will do it when I get a roun toit. Hate cold water running down telescoping water/soap/brush thing, into armpit and down my leg.

Last trip the AC was vibrating the coach, and the shore line was getting hot, so when I got home I took it into Highway Trailer Sales service department here in Salem, OR. A day later Greg called me and said the AC unit needed to be replaced do to high amp draw and the compressor was failing. All I could see was big dollars, as this unit is a heat pump too,but Greg said he had contacted my warranty company and all was covered, and would be ready to go for our next trip to Trout Creek OR. with the Grand kids.

Read through the insurance policy looking to see if water damage is covered. The repair shop says we need big job done on the front cap where possibly water got in. I need to research this topic elsewhere on this site.

We have 1999 Tioga 29'. We are RV ers from the early 70's and kinda handy. We just finished, removing all of the carpet, including the cab. We replaced with new but put down tile in main traffic area. I added all new laminate to table and counters. We re upholstered the seat cushions and replaced the valance fabrics.And had the stripes repainted. It looks pretty sharp. I replaced built in TV with new digital and wired it for my Blue Tooth hearing aid system. I would be happy to assist you in the hearing set up. I replaced the front sway bar bushings, but didn't see a lot of improvment. I have a lot of sway, however I have nothing to compare to. Ok,,,Thanks for letting me chat. - - - Larry

Hi,

Corrected the tire pressures which were too high in the front and too low in the back. Drive-ability improved.

Installed new Hellwig sway bar on our Solera. Fairly easy install, but would have helped if I had been able to put the coach up on jack stands. After install, I took it for a 10-12 mile test drive, and the difference in handling was amazing, There was a good steady 10-15mph corss wind, and it was unnoticeable, and reduced tail wag from passing trucks by a good 50%. All-in-all, a good investment.

Jumped from 225/75R16 to 235/85R16.

New wheels with the correct offset required

I chose to do a wheel alignment and a camber sleeve was added.

So far initial results are good--it looks like at least 5% better mileage, better ground clearance, smoother softer ride, and now that I've corrected the over inflated front tires, an easier "drive".

Climbed up on the roof with the Mineral Spirits and Dicor and started sealing any possible leaks. Didn't get it finished because I was afraid I wouldn't leave enough time for it to set before the rain came. Didn't see anything that was obviously leaking.

Got some camber adjustment bushings put on to fix the alignment. Adding 450 pounds of batteries to one side threw off the alignment a bit but now it drives nice and straight again.

Packed it up and set it up at the campground down the road a few miles...the movers start packing up the house tomorrow and we'll stick around until next Friday for work stuff, then drive to VA to close on our new house (hopefully) in mid-July. We won't have an address for the next few weeks so I guess that makes us "full-timers!" Haha...
