Forum: Replacement part information
- No Replies

I was the unfortunate pilot to a recent blow out of a front passenger side 365 tire at 60 mph. Our creator “God” spared my life and left me with only minimal damage to our coach #637. The damage included the disappearance of our fender flare that wraps around the wheel well. Our coach is a 2002 and Morgan at Newell can have one made however it’s quite expensive by my budget at $2560 unpainted. 
I am currently hoping to find a used flare or have one made. Any help or guidance we would be very much appreciated.

My Coach is at Newell and they just called and said I need a new tank ($6,500 estimate).  Yikes, I'm not clear on how much this is leaking, it seemed ok last time I used the system.  Are there any other alternatives, cheaper repair outlets.  I'm located in Oklahoma. 

Thanks

Frank

As I was playing around with the diagnostics display on my overhead monitor, I noticed a Pre-Drive Checklist.  You can check the items off.  I wanted to clear those checkmarks, so I tapped the "Clear" button...but...that DELETED the line!

Anyone have a clue how to reset that list and add the lines I deleted?  I've tried turning the ignition on and off, but have not started the rig yet (it's in service).

Thanks

Thank you for adding me to the group. I just purchased a 1984 Newell Classic 40'. Its my first Newell. I plan on traveling with my wife and kids all over the US. I race vintage motorcross in AHRMA and plan on going to all the Vintage races next year and racing my 1967 Maico oval 360 and 1974.5 Maico 440.

Just purchased coach 370.  Drove it home from Joplin MO to Manhattan KS yesterday.  It's a non slide 94, with a DD60.  Amazing driving experience compared to my 95 Fleetwood gasser.  Even with the solid front axle on the Newell.

Special thanks to Michael Day for his help with coach information when we were researching this purchase.  And thanks to everyone who manage this sight.  The info here was invaluable to me even before purchasing.

I've identified some issues with the coach and will probably be reaching out for help if I can't find what I need searching the site.

Hello proud Newell owners! Recently I read a post about Prevost vs. Newell. I had thought I had made a decision to buy a very nice Prevost and after reading about what the folks here said about your experiences with Newell Coaches, you changed my mind....found a very nice 1993 with only 106k miles on it and in excellent updated condition per the mechanic who has been working on the coach over the years and is road ready for a cross country trip. I think it is 43.5 feet long...so excited it really looks very nice, I always wanted a Prevost due to the stainless steel siding but I think I made a better choice for comfort and reliability the Prevost was a 1990 with 148k on it and is 10k more in price....thank you folks for your positive statements about your own coaches, reading your opinions made my decision easy! Peace be with you, Pastor Rob...

Sadly, We are no longer Newell owners! Earlier this year we sold our wonderful 94 Newell #365 to Matt & Leslie Whaley from the Lake of the Ozarks area. Very nice folks and Matt has been busy bringing her to their liking. Here's a good lesson for any of you who decide it's time to sell your Coach. If you meet someone that walks into your coach and really like it, and they're nice, excited folks, give them a price that gives them a lot of room for making it the way they like it, including those little repairs, and you'll both be Happy Campers! I hope the Whaleys enjoy having a Newell as much as we have.

I'll continue to browse on here just because, well, you never know the future! Anyway, I'd like to thank all of you for the open arms and sincere caring for a novice in 1999 and making him feel comfortable as a new Newell owner. Although I'd been in the RV business for 20 years, the Newell was a completely new experience and I spent 21 years and 308,000 miles with it and it was a wonderful, educational experience because of all your help and the wonderful people at Newell and the 24/7 help line! There's none better!

 Thank You to the many of you that I've personally met and A very special Thank You to Tom & Darlene. (The Newell towels Darlene made for us did not go with the coach) I wish I could have visited your beautiful new Newell Hospitality Center You guys are the best!

Best Regards and Happy, Safe Travels to all,
