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

Ordered the Roadmaster steering stabilizer! Curious to see if it helps. Don't know if the alignment really did much for the effects of the wind. It did help tightened up the steering at least. Going to Colorado end of May so getting it ready for trip.

I just purchased a new Four Winds 22B Class C with the Ford E-450 chassis. What items did you add/replace to make your's handle better? Mine is definitely a handful, especially in the wind.

Thank you


Google "E450 Caster" for a solution to "loose steering" and "wandering" issues.

Having just returned from a 9 day, 1,500 mile roundtrip to southern Utah it was time for some serious cleanup. My bride tackles the interior while I assume all exterior duties. A thorough de bug treatment, complete wash down and the application for a fair amount wax {but not a full wax job}, completed the exterior cosmetics.

I have to replace or repair a small leak at the bathroom faucet and the rear hatch cover has developed a crack after 5 years. I've already replaced the other two so this should be a simple repair/replacement. No other mishaps. On this trip we turned over 41,000 miles in a little over the last 3.5 years and just keep on having waaaay too much fun.

Looked under the hood to see if there was any obvious damage, then looked around inside to see if there were any water leaks, or other problems, after the winter. Happy to say there were no problems found. Next comes the dewinterization process.

Yesterday I installed the brain-box on my electric step so it has the "last man out" feature. I used an LED strip light for illumination.

Today I replaced the slide-out seal.

We are leaving Monday to go back north till next winter.
I decided yesterday to raise the jacks. Have had problems with them. Sue enough the jacks would not retract. Called the rv service guy who comes to this park. He tried and nothing worked. Called Thor tech support, and after maybe almost an hour, the jacks still would not come up using the control panel. So we raised them manually. The tech support and my rv guy think that the solenoid at the motor is going bad. And that my coach batteries may need replacing. I am going to wait till I get home to work on it, because my buddy is a mechanic and has his own business and I get his pricing. So I can save alittle money. Just part of the RV experience.

Installed a backup camera with a dedicated screen. The head unit comes on at "key on" and the camera comes on with the clearance lights. If I want the camera on all the time, I will pull the headlight switch out one click to get tail/clearance lights or fully out for headlights.

replaced the single battery that our new coach came with, with 2 new interstate batteries, installed a Tire Pressure Monitoring system and 3 vent covers. Then took it to the car wash and put some fresh gas in it. Getting ready for our first trip of the year in 3 weeks.

Could you be losing power to the one in the coach? Could be when you plug it in it takes a few minutes before it has power after shutting it down. Does it take 120VAC to operate it?

The one in the house has power all the time.
