Atwood furnace blower wheel replacement: Notes and pix

The furnace blower wheel hangs unsupported on the motor shaft. Eventually the bearings wear out and the blower / motor starts to squeal. The motor needs to be replaced.

This job is within the reach of the RV owner but it is not simple and you really have to be prepared.

I have put a bunch of notes on getting the exact parts kit, tools needed, and key steps.

It is very likely you will have to saw the motor shaft and I explain how to do this.

In order to handle text and photos, I have put the writeup here: http://bit.ly/2EEQ4sz

Hope this information is helpful to others. Feedback welcome.
