I just had this come in on my FB feed.

We made it about 100 miles on our trip to Dayton OH and got stopped by a stalled tractor trailer in traffic for 2 hours. I lost all but 30psi of brake pressure so when the road opened I couldn't leave and was stuck between two Jersey barriers.. so now I was the obstacle!. We managed to generate enough PSI temporarily, to get us to a pull off. And then we bypassed the valve and caged the brakes to get us to the tow/repair yard and spent the night.

Now we've spent hours trying to get the last of the four bolts off the failed valve.

I believe it's a Bendix R-14H but am not 100% sure. And we're not sure where to source one Today/tomorrow. If I have to order online, I could be stuck here until Tuesday.

Can anyone assist. Help!

Thanks,

Rick Miller

The new place i work has a bunch of trucks. They all have detroit 60s in them. The real key here that got me thinking is. The electric engine fan conversions they have done.  No engine horsepower being robbed by the engine fan anymore. That would open up a lot of extra room in the engine bay as well. Anyone else do it yet? Or will I have to eventually be the first one to work it out.

My door operates correctly except when opening and closing and while open air is rushing from the cylinder pictured. I understand this is the locking cylinder. Air is rushing from around the rod in this cylinder when rod is extended     Is anyone familiar with a repair kit for the pictured cylinder. Seals, wiper etc. I suppose I can remove cylinder and repair. Also I read a mention of someone calling Bode for advice. I need that contact information. The cylinder is Masat cylinder are parts available from them?
Leaking cylinder is in picture on right side

Can anyone tell me if any of the 1980s coaches were made in 35 foot lengths or less? I love these coaches, but don't want anything longer than 35.

Hey guys, my first post for Help  I’m not an electrician. I work in Electronics but mostly in Sales lol  I replaced all of the lights in my coach to get it a little brighter   And the dimmers don’t dim very well so I bought a bunch of low side dimmers tried to hook them up in the AI stuff and everything I learned told me I needed high side dimmers so I’ve got them here and can’t seem to get them work either I can get the lights to come on. I can get them to go off, but I can’t get the dimmer to have any control in them whatsoever and I keep getting told all kinds of different things with the research. I’m doing so I’m hoping one of you might be able to give me a firm idea on what I am not doing. I have a brown red and black wire coming out of the wall and that seems to be the coloring scheme for all the other dimmers in the coach too, which I am trying to replace them all   The dimmers I have are a three wire as well and they have black, red and yellow coming out of them   Appreciate any help you might be able to provide

I have a 94-43 ft Newell #347, non-slide coach with an 8V92 motor.  Mileage is ~103,000. Have owned it since 2015 (72153 mis). It is used regularly though not a lot of annual miles. Front tires are new, drive tires are 1 year-old and the tag axle tires are about 5 years old. House batteries are Nov. 2025, coach batteries are October 2021. One gas heater is new and the other has a new core. All 3 A/Cs work well. Kohler generator has ~2200 hrs and a 200 amp alternator was installed April 2023. July 2025 charged the +Jernn-Air refrigerator with freon (cools nicely now). Squirrel cage blower and aux compressor replaced about 2019. All awnings work and are in good condition. Replaced quickee step, engine coolant, transmission fluid, engine tachometer, and front windshield. Have two extra windshield panes. All water filters replaced in April 2026. have two extra water pumps. I know it's easy to say, but I don't know of anything that is needed on this coach. Oh btw, I just re-upholstered the front seats. The paint is okay though the end caps have faded and could use a repaint. This is a non-DEF vehicle and not required to have an annual smog inspection in California. Since acquisition the coach has resided in an industrial condo in a dessert environment. Asking $65,000.

Hi looking at this coach and wondering if anyone knows anything about this?

I have a complete lithium set up ready to instal but I want to take a couple week long trips and dont have time before I want to leave to install it but my lead acid batteries are really in need of changing. What is the minimum number of house batteries I can run on if either the coach will be running, the generator running or I will be plugged in? Was thinking If I could get by on two house batteries I would just install two new lead acid till I get back if it would get me by and not hurt anything? Thoughts? Kent
