If you are looking for the switches the one for the living room is mounted on the wall between the fridge and the shower (there is another momentary on/off switch on this wall as well and that is the battery boost button to start the generator if your coach batteries are dead)and the one for...

What exactly are you looking for? I have a 2007 Haulmark and haven't seen any kind of "controller" for the slides, just rocker switches to reverse the polarity.

Try your local truck tire shop to start. or Catalog:Â*Â* Highway 22.50", Hub Piloted Wheels | Wheels Now Inc. Catalog

Ask at a local truck wrecker.... There are thousands of double frame trucks on the road, so they should be in the wrecking yards too.....

Call a local heavy truck wrecker and buy a chunk of used frame.

Check with any truck equipment shops in your area. Look for companies that install tanks, dry van boxes, gravel boxes, etc.

Unless you stay at campgrounds that are way more level than the ones I stay at I am sure you will want a levelling system. Plus if the trailer chassis you use is air-ride (the only way I would go, springs would just destroy everything) you will have motion transfer. This is what is on my...

From what I can recall from days long gone by.....if you take a gas engine and put propane on it, it will run properly, but not as efficiently(power wise) as an engine built for propane. But when trying to make a propane engine burn gasoline there may be issues depending on how "built" for...

Showhauler use VHB tape to skin their coaches, and has done so fo years. If you watch one of their videos they touch on the subject briefly.

Last summer I had to replace the Michelin XZA2 Energy 295/80R22.5 that the dealer put on my coach when I bought it 6yrs ago due to dry rot(only have about 10,000miles on them. The dealer chain my employer uses had some Continental HSR2 that they were willing to sell me for $200/tire due to...

Any light that does not have a SAE or DOT Approval number on them is illegal for on road use. Not that this stops most people. These lights https://www.rigidindustries.com/lights/series/sae-compliant.html would be legal when used properly.

The one pictured above went for $63,000 according to the auction website. See full results here: https://www.ironhorseauction.info/auction/day-1-bankruptcy-auction-of-fusion-custom-trailers-motorcoaches-inc-189 and...

Every box I have ever seen has had hardwood between the truck frame and box frame, a kind of sacrificial wear plate.

Strange....when I click on the link on my laptop it filters properly but on my phone it doesn't. If you filter by Freightliner and marker lights it brings up 6 possible teardrop LED lights. Here is the one I was thinking of...

Any of these look like they would work. https://www.iowa80.com/browse/semi-truck-lights-led-marker-lights/LEDMARKER/ The 2 expensive ones look bright.

Your current ball hitch is NOT meant to accept a lunette(pintle) ring with an additional piece, it is designed that way to give it proper support for up to a 25,000lb trailer. If you want a 40,000lb pintle hitch you will probably have to get a fabrication shop to make a solid mount that bolts...

Thanks for posting. Pretty much what I had envisioned. So to hold the new LED lights into your custom buckets you used the just the retaining ring from the JW Speaker mounting kits? What you did addressed one of my concerns quite effectively, having a mount that allows for aiming properly. I...

I am not a member on that site so I can't see the pictures but thats ok, I have a pretty good mental image of what you did.

Petrel do you have any pictures of the modifications you had to make to the stock buckets to mount the Evolution 2's? I plan on(and have been planning for several years now) doing something similar to my Haulmark/Coronado soon, the stock stuff sucks. I don't do much night driving when I am...

EGR flow is not monitored, it will still sense the EGR valve operating so it thinks everything works. The older the engine the simpler they get.

Most of the mechanics that I know that work on them say they seem to do better in vocational or regional (gravel trucks, local delivery trucks, etc) applications, where engine loads and speed varies greatly, than in less long haul type trucks where you set the cruise and go at a steady pace...

Read the first two posts here (plus many more on that wonderful engine).... https://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/threads/mbe-4000-mercedes-engines.26048/page-3

I made my own ball platform(with bushpilots pics for reference), it is on a Haulmark but looking at the pictures for a Renegade it looks the same. Here is a link to the thread on these hitches, post #19 has a link to the drawings I created and gave to a local fab shop to waterjet cut and weld...

Beaudacious, where in Canada are you? Must be down east.....Out west we have lots of truck conversions. I am in southern Alberta and i know of at least a dozen within 50miles of me. I have even discussed custom building one on a Pete 379 with a local truck body builder and they have projects on...
