What did you do to your Class C MH today???

This is always a fun thread to watch in other forums, so I thought I'd start one here.

Disassembled, cleaned and reassembled my Demco tow bar. Will check the torque on the Jeep baseplate tomorrow.

Installed new magnets to hold the screen door against the outer door, fixed the latch of the inside sliding bathroom screen (now its magnetic) and finished/tested my new electric water heater conversion.

Signed all the paperwork and spent 3 hours transferring everything from the old TT into the C. Definitely time to do some culling.

Today I finished up my electric upgrade for my water heater. The element is small and replaces the drain valve. It's only a 425 Watt element but it gets the water hot enough. When I was putting it all together, I saw that the tank has two large bosses for anode rods. Looks like I could replace one of the anodes with a thread in element and upgrade to 1500 Watts for $20. Either way, adding on the electric to your propane only heater is a good way to save gas and take advantage of the shore power at a camp site.

Got the TV mounted finally.. such a pain to break it down every time. Still need get the wire molding and run the wires and the switch for the amplifier. Not sure if I should figure something out for support going down the road.

Not knowing the whole story I would say YES. Can't be too careful with speeds at 50 MPH and a bump.

Think I had a idea for straps. Technically it's held to the cabinet by four grade 8 bolts and 3 bolts from the base to the arm it almost pull the TV or cabinet a part first.

I think some got there facts wrong when the V10 came in 98 is was called E Superduty because at the time it was a cross between a E350 and E450 frame of a E450 suspension front E350. You will see when you buy parts and yet its got the same GVW as 450

Hi Harvard,

Hi,

I thought the V-10 started in 1999? Is it an E 350 (not 360)?

I did belts and hoses on mine as soon as I got it, too. You may wish to add getting the brake fluid replaced.

Our first Class C MH was a 1997 E350 V10 and the first year for the Ford F53 V10 (Class A) was 1999.

Installed a new vent and cover at the bathroom arear. Tomorrow I finish sealing it and wire up the fan/light that are built into the vent.

"Do you have the amplifier for the antenna turned on?"...yes there's a little green indicator light on the plug-in....

There's 2 semi-easy ways I have for Next Step:
1) move RV to where the house cable can reach and screw the cable physically in to the RV circuit;

2) since we do live in a sort of Electronic Sargosso Sea, I can drive the RV to where the Tech Guy found the signals, and try around the area a bit.

Every time I read the manual & fiddle with it, I make it a little closer to the end of the chapter on the set up.

So far I can run the radio, play the CD. Big steps, gents. It's odd, as I get sort of mesmerized, and enjoy just sitting there without any signal interrupting my nap time.....

Been neglecting the generator so we ran it for a couple of hours today. Last month we had a tow/brake system installed for the Honda CRV. Now if we could just get some warmer weather!
