Just discovered this site and after perusing for only a few minutes, decided to join..we currently have coach 1491, our fourth ‘pusher’ and second Newell. We usually spend about six months in the coach each year. I do most of my own maintenance, including removing and reinstalling the radiator/inner cooler/hydraulic oil cooler. On our current coach. Happy to be ‘on board’.

my two slide coach with both on the drivers side always leans down on the drivers side when sitting 

the fuel tank is on the drivers side (batteries opposite it)
fridge on drivers side
pantry on drivers side
heavy dinette on drivers side
couch on drivers side
bed and nightstands with quartz tops on drivers side
water tank kinda straddled both sides
slides on drivers side
bathroom vanity on drivers side

sure seems like alot of weight is on that side.  i have never weighed side to side or each wheel.

im in Nashville this week for business and I stopped by a place ive been looking at for years on line
they sell tour buses and motorhomes
he told me about some guys that do work on the side that either work at newell or have in  the past
any info out there ?

Hello Newell gurus, 
I've been reading and gathering info from this site for a while. Finally joined although I have no experience to share yet. Thank everyone who shares their knowledge, I've learned a lot from you all. My wife & I are full time RVers and we're raising our granddaughter. We've made the decision to buy a Newell when we can find what we need. Hoping to find a 2008-2011 with a bunk.
A question for the gurus. The bunk models that we've seen all have curtains. Are there no coaches with doors that can close off the bunks? I realize there are doors on both ends of the hall, but I really dislike the look of curtains covering the bunks. We would really like to have some sort of doors instead, plus as our granddaughter gets older she's going to want more privacy than a simple curtain provides. I'm wondering if anyone has seen bifold or flex doors (similar to a roll top desk) in any of the Newell coaches. 
Looking forward to being a true member of the Newell family

   
Patty and I looked at a 2004 Newell last week.  It was very clean, but the roof had waves in the aluminum skin.  Is this common?

FYI, rebuilt Detroit 8V92 is coming up for auction in CA on Mar 27th 2019....https://www.govplanet.com/for-sale/Parts-Detroit-Diesel-Engine-w%2FContainer-California/2084342?h=5000%2Cc%7C2246%2Cq%7CEngine&rr=1&hitprm=&pnLink=yes

Good Morning,

My wife and I just purchased coach number 643 from Motorhomes of Texas. It is a beautiful coach and for being 15 years old it is in very good condition. They took care of most issues that were found but I'm sure others will pop up that I will need to address as time goes on. I love projects so we'll see what comes up. We drove it back from Texas to our home in California (1,641 miles) with no issues and are looking forward to making lots of great family memories with it. I can take care of most things myself but I will leave the heavy duty work to local businesses that have the equipment... So far we are thoroughly impressed with it! I do look forward to having Newell discussions with other owners as time goes on.


Regards,

My tag axle switch has three positions: up, off, down.  I always use the up position when turning corners - any idea what the down position is for?

Can you, adjust the weight on Tag axles independently of each other ?

I ask, because, I just had each wheel weighed on #784. Here are my results

                     Fr driver #8,800                           Fr pass #8,500    Wife was out of the rig and my Fat but some what skewed this

Drive axle Drivers side #12,600       Drive axle, pass side  #12,700

  Tag axle drivers side # 7,750           Tag axle, pass side #7,200  



I had about #1,100 ??? lbs of tounge weight on the hitch without my weight transferring hitch. 

What i'm concerned about is the #550 of more weight on one tag wheel than the other tag wheel. The tag tires are Identical, brand, date code are the same.

What can I do ?

ran across this on craiglist this morning.  

look at the price
