Just installed a Coleman Mach 8 13.5k A/C on my Big Country today. Hardest part was cleaning the Dicor off where the old vent was, but with a heat gun and puddy knife most of it came up. The only problem was that the bolts were to short for the thicker roof. Had to fab up four longer bolts from redi rod to hold it in place. Will go to Fast-n-all and get better bolts tomorrow. When done total height of the 5er is 12'9". Now ready for 2 months on the Road. Lets GO.

"puddy" ... the first half of "tat"

"putty" ... the sticky stuff on the roof.

Me thinks you could have found the correct size bolts at a dealer. I installed a second air con a year ago and I had the same issue.
