ThanksRe: ZF6 Manual Transmission 4x4 F250 Power StrokeThanks to all that responded to my question of my ZF6 4x4 F250 6 speed and the problem I had backing up hill with a 12,000 5th wheel. It's the nature of the beast to develop "axle wrap" the fix could be torsion bars at a quoted price of 1400.00 or simply going into 4 wheel drive and easing into the site. It all makes sense, and the next time I encounter the problem I'll try it.ZF6 Manual Transmission 4x4 F250 Power StrokeI'm hoping I can get an answer to the question of backing my 12,000 LB 5th wheel with my 4x4 F250 manual shift. What happens, if I'm backing on an incline into a RV site slowly, I get all kinds of noise like the drive train is going to fall out on the ground, lot's of jumping around. I'm at a camp ground now,I had to take a pull thru because I thought I was going to brake something. The clutch and components have all been replaced less than 2,000 miles ago. Help!2001 Alpenlite Augusta 32RLHello, I'm considering a 01 32RL to buy and it will be my permanent home. Question is it considered an all season coach? Are we talking heated tanks and such? I can't seem to find anything yet on construction. I'll be looking at it tomorrow, any suggestions in what to look for? Thanks,FrankRe: Breakdown InformationI would like to add my two cents regarding overheating in a class A Motorhome. A couple of years ago while driving on I-5 south bound near Bakersfield CA suddenly I discovered the heat gauge went off the scale,steam everywhere. What led up to this was the fact that the old familiar noisy radiator clutch fan had been silent for a few miles and the heat was building up in the engine and it blew an over looked rubber hose that goes from the water pump to the intake manifold just a little hose that appeared to be o.k. when all the others were replaced it wasn't.I did not look for the obvious and I assumed it was a freeze plug because the steam and water seemed to come from the side of the block.I had us towed in and it was just a big mess all around with loss time and etc. Lessoned learned is obvious. Those clutch fans are a nuisense when they come on because they are so noisy but watch out if they don't. This was on a 454 engine by the way and the second clutch I went thru in three years.
