I owned a 34' 1989 Pace Arrow. I owned a 454 chev. Problems I had.
1. Bubbling of fiber glass on side.
2. Rear springs were Moryde rubber. I went through 3 sets in 8000 miles under warranty. My MH always sagged on one side in the rear.
3. Manifold warping. Replaced on warranty.
4. generator door would pop open due to heat when running the generator. I re-enforced it with aluminum angle. solved problem.
5. That MH is easily converted to use two power cords so both A/Cs can be run on shore power.
I tried to get the MH re-springed with leafs on rear. Nobody would attempt it. If I could have got leaf springs under the rear I probably would still own it.
My father-in-law has an 89 Pace Arrow. He has fixed pretty much the same list of stuff. He's got almost 190,000mi on it now. He's been across the states a couple times, across Canada, down to Mexico and up to Alaska.
Had replacement rear springs made (leafs) and it rides well. Replaced the stock exhaust manifolds with long tube headers. GM 454 was problem free once the headers went on.
He just bought a 91 Pace Arrow to replace it (less than 50,000 on the new one).
