I had to relocate the generator exhaust since the previous owner ran over something that crushed the pipe going up through the roof. Their repair was to cut the pipe and do a side exit using the crushed roof pipe bend as an anchoring point with a radiator hose clamp for securement. This worked fine but the pipes and hangers were 30 years old and looked janky. When I removed the air tanks, the exhaust was in the way which hindered tank removal and access to the fittings high above the tanks. I had cut the pipes out of the way to reconfigure them to a side exit behind the driver wheel area. In doing so I finally found out why my generator slide would hang up halfway with a delay before it came speeding out. The generator exhaust sleeve was dented since it sat on the front axle when the bags were deflated. I could not fix the dent since it was right in the center of the pipe so I cut out the damage and welded in a new curved piece. The pipe slides nicely now with no hangups. In the whole process I added V-band clamps to make it easy for exhaust pipe removal should the air tanks need to be removed in the future. Overall, it came out nice. I still need to paint the welds with high heat silver and install a new hanger for the generator sleeve pipe. That pipe had heat wrapping on it. Not sure if I should bother putting it back? Do you guys have any heat insulation wrap on your generator pipe where it exits and goes outside the coach?
All,
It's been about 18 months since our latest security update, so I updated the forum to the latest and greatest MyBB version 1.8.37. It shouldn't change much, mostly security fixes. Let me know if you see anything broken!
I Have Been thinking about Getting an Extended Warranty for my 2007 Newell, Coach 804. It has 118K on it. I have Spent somewhere in the neighborhood of $50K in the last 5yrs. Everything is in Pretty Good shape now. Has anyone had Experience with any Extended Warranty companies. Which ones should I Consider and ones to Stay away from. atureAlso, How do I put my Coach Number and Toad info under my Signature ?!?
Thanks For You Help!
these are consistent to all of the newells that use hwh leveling systems.

after we changed the slide seal on tim's coach i took a small section of the old seal and kept it. i took these pictures so you can see how it has a piece that snaps into the track on the coach.

Looking to have some work done on the generator and air system. Is there a reliable shop near Saint Cloud Fl or Orlando where I can put the coach on a pit or on lifts.
How can I make the slide seal NOT air itself up after the ignition key is off?

The title says it all. I am going to be speaking at this years expo and was wondering if anyone else is attending?
I've booked into the SanLan RV Resort as it's the nicest and closest I could find. About 67/50/night 67ft concrete pads.

Let me know if anyone else is going to the expo, love to meet up!
Dear All, after starting my generator I found cooling fluid leaking on the driver side of the engine of the generator. I was told that I need to disconnect the cooling fluid hoses from that engine and unbolt, lift the assembly and pull it out 45 degr. To see where the fluid leaks.
The top hose is easy to disconnect, but how to disconnect the lower hose behind the engine.
Can I reach that hose from under the coach between the front wheels?
Has anyone done this job already?
Thanks for Your comment.
I installed a Sanicon Turbo 600 macerator this week. I used one for a few years on previous coach, it just seems easier than the Waste Master simply due to length required at many sites. I have used 200' of macerator sewer line in the past with that system. Here are my notes for those interested.
