My '96 Pace Arrow has the original Atwood LP furnace. Because of LP prices we only use for back up at night to keep pipes from freezing. We use electric ceramic heaters for heat during the day if need...

If you would give the model number of the furnace, I could tell you how hard it is to get to the motor- a DC82 series the furnace must be pulled and disassembled- a couple of hours- if it is an 8500 or 8900 series, the motor takes about 20 minutes to replace, no removal, no disconnecting LP lines.
Running it with squealing bearings will wear the shaft on the blower, destroying the motor. It is possible to drill a couple of small holes in the end bells of the motor to saturate the felt "lifetime" reservoir.
