While we were swapping tires we noticed the wiring harness for the hydraulic Jack's was ripped in half at the plugs by the tire grenading. Two things ... 1.we have a short slide (18"?). Could we use it without jacks? I'm thinking temporary solution if I can't fix it when I get to camp. 2. Anyone have a wiring diagram? Looks like 1 plug and another half dozen wires need reconnected. I can do that if I have a reference to look at. Thanks!Re: Parking a Class A within 4" of a wooden fenceI think we may end up paying to park it elsewhere. I found a spot about 15 minutes away fir $75 a month which will have to do for now. I may test run it a few times next to the house to see how I like that as well for the long-term.Re: Parking a Class A within 4" of a wooden fenceIn our case, the problem is that its not the widest street and I'll have to turn it in pretty tight. I'm not saying its not doable, but it is going to take finesse, frustration, etc. But I'll get it. Maybe wood and railroad ties won't work, but I still wish I could have something over the fence to prevent a scratch or ding. If I hit it hard enough to knock over the fence then I'm applying too much gas.Re: Parking a Class A within 4" of a wooden fenceAnother really cool way to do it would be a padded wooden beam like they have for gymnasts. But, its likely just putting a beam by the tire will provide enough control.Re: Parking a Class A within 4" of a wooden fenceThank you for all of the advice! I like the idea of building a guide using wood which I can position and wnchor in using railroad ties. I also called around and found an outside rv storage place near us for $74 a month, but I'm more hesitant to park it there due to the pain of getting to it and the fear of break-ins. Now I just need to make my decision!Re: Parking a Class A within 4" of a wooden fenceThe fence is the border of our driveway on the property so we cannot move it. The fence would go along the driver's side of the coach so we can get out the other side.Parking a Class A within 4" of a wooden fenceWe're moving to a 32' Class A from our 23' Class C. The longer coach will make parking somewhat difficult on our property. The only way to make it work is to nose it in to the side yard a little (roughly 2'), which is just over 9' wide. This will pull the coach very close to the wooden fence we have. To avoid the possibility of grazing it and shredding paint off the coach, I was wondering if anyone had suggestions of something to do on that side of the wooden fence. While the right answer would be "don't hit it!" , its bound to happen once ... and I'd like to avoid an expense paint job as a course of that. Thanks for any suggestions you may have! -MikeRe: Uh oh! Sprung a leak!I ran a commercial grade dehumidifier for 24 hours within the RV. I've also been running the heater within the RV for 2 days straight now and its still on. When I get home tonight I'll put a fan in there to get the airflow moving as well. I have an RV mechanic coming out tomorrow to take a look at the whole thing. Hopefully I can put it to bed at that time.Possible to locate a fender for an '87 Leprechaun?Is it still possible to find replacement parts for older ('87) RVs? I have a Coachman Leprechaun and I need the rear driver's side wheel well/fender.
