Hey, that's an informative article but it doesn't address what I'm trying to do.
The gaskets are affixed to the A/C, and there is a gasket within a gasket separating the air discharge and air return portions of the ducting manifold. There is no access to the A/C unit from inside the motorhome.
So, not only do I need to know that the gasket is properly seated on the 14"X14" roof opening, but I also need to know that the second gasket is seated properly as well.
The old and new bolt holes do not line up, so that's of no help either.
If you still have the Newmar.
1. Once the old is pulled you will see the extra gasket on the old AC. Just match the new gasket to the new AC
2. Yes, the holes do not line up on older Dometic's. The REAR 2 lag bolts should line up. You then need to measure and drill 2 new holes that match the old AC pan. DO NOT DRILL NEW HOLES IN THE ROOF. Doug
