We are still looking for a 2004 or 2005 coach, must have steerable rear axle, how or where when looking do you find the Model # is it somewhere in the serial #

Thanks
Rick

We had 5 fogged Hehr vertical windows on our coach, so while passing through the Hudson, FL, area, we made an appointment and stopped at Suncoast to have them removed, disassembled, cleaned, resealed, and put back in.  We also were starting to see slight fogging on the big driver's window, too, so we were scheduled for a total of 6 windows in three days.  An aggressive, but doable schedule, according to them.

They have a good reputation and clearly a ton of business, and they have hookups for you when on site.


However, please use caution if you bring your Newell to Suncoast:  they do not have a lot of experience with the unique mount that our windows have, and they neglected at first to remove the butyl sealant from around the mounting frame before replacing the windows.  This left several windows proud of the slideout skin by a quarter inch, enough to cause trouble with slide clearance as well as not looking very good.

I made them remove and reinstall correctly, but this work and other issues extended our stay by several days.

They also up-charge for Newell windows by about 80%, which is no big surprise, except that they didn't seem too keen to do 80% more labor to get things done correctly.

If you do go there, be prepared to watch them like a hawk!

If I were doing this again, I would probably just order new windows from Hehr and install them.  Suncoast claims their re-built windows are better-sealed than factory new windows, which may be true, but after all the cost and effort, I'm not sure it's worth the slight savings.

Should I leave my compressor on when the coach is in storage? Or should I shut it off and let the seals deflate. I have been using an pancake compressor I have and hooking it to the “shop air in” port but wondering if that is necessary.

Merry Christmas everyone, I have been looking around for a while and I’m in love with Newell sad however I can only aforward a older one, so my question is first Is Panterra dealer reputable? They have a 40’ triple slide 2003 that on picture looks beautiful it’s any any of you familiar with this coach I’m a total newbie I current have a 2018 32’ Newmar Baystar and cant wait to have a diesel pusher bu 40’ feet it’s my max for various reason any information I would really appreciate 

Thanks

to all of my Newell friends, even those I haven't met yet.
I hope all of you had a great year and hope next year will be even better.

While driving behind me one cold Arkansas day, my wife noticed smoke coming from the area where the exhaust stack enters the muffler. Yesterday a friend took this video. 

After the run we were inspecting the engine bay and I noticed a coolant pipe joint that appears to be missing clamps or the clamps are not in the proper position (see pictures of pipe entering the radiator). Before I brought the coach home a Detroit Diesel shop worked on that side of the engine. 

We’re hoping this is the issue BUT... adding clamps will be difficult!!!

By chance does anyone know what size the pipe/joint sleeve is or what size clamp would be used? I’d like to use T Bolt clamps like the ones used on the pipe above.

Coach 588 and 683 in ft Myers Florida.

Safety Recall on all 2018 p50 Newells built May 1, 2016 through Oct 31, 2017 (#1600-1636).

A Buss 100 amp self-resetting circuit breaker connecting front chassis electrical load center to the rear chassis electrical load center can trip under high amp draw and temperature conditions. Breaker will be replaced with a 120 amp breaker at no charge by Newell.

Do all Newels made after 2003 have the ZF Suspension Active Steering Tag Axle
