Yesterday an auctioneer friend came over to evaluate our stuff, and said we have plenty for an auction, so we set the date - 5 April. Today a real estate agent came over to look over the house. He'll give us numbers early next week. Then we'll decide whether to include the real estate in the auction or not. If we do we'll be full-timers by the end of May!

I have a question about 1999 and 2000 Newells that owners of these years can help me with.
I have looked at several units that have a good price point but I am avoiding because of the wheel bearing recall for 1999 and 2000 models = is this recall valid?
Is the bearing issue something that has to be addressed every 7500 miles by those that now own these two years?
Thanks for any help.

Refer to:
Date of Manufacturing: From Nov. 1, 1999 to Oct. 15, 2000
Units Affected: 55
Dealers will install a revised tag axle suspension arrangement to correct this problem. Also, at intervals of 7,500 miles, owners are requested to arrange to have the tag axle wheel bearings replaced at a dealership or call Newell to issue authorization to have these bearings changed in a service facility in the field at Newell's expense.

I'm looking for a removable face plate for this in dash radio. Mine does not light up. This radio was common around 19992000. Any one have one they removed from their coach?

Good looking. http://bit.ly/1aMzdKr
And at 350k miles it sure would have some tails to tell!!

Besides getting my coach fixed. Had some cool things.. Dale Earnhardt juniors old coach was there. Skull and flames.. And his new coach is being delivered tomorrow.. Got to meet his driver really cool guy great stories.. His new coach is cool , golf fits in storage bay.. Anyway really cool.

Also saw Ryan newmans coach and met Michael Waltrips driver.. Waltrips still has his 04 quad slide.. Really cool coach.. Heard some awesome stories..came home with my coach but that may change next week.. Keeping fingers crossed. Haven't told wife yet..

Anyone have any experience or comments and ideas on a Murphy bed?

I am getting ready for our first trip south and have a couple questions ? I have a 1987 8v92 DDec ,what should the maximum temp be on the turbo temp gauge . Also the trans gear indicator has only partial numbers showing ,would there be bulbs to change or does the whole thing have to be changed ? Thanks

Trying to figure this one out.
The left front drops especially in cold weather. But when I try to raise that side it takes a long time or doesn't come up at all. If I crank the engine to let it come to ride height that corner takes a long time also.
But if I press the raise button on the HWH pad to raise it to the extended height it comes up quicker. Doesn't that button use the same solenoids? Why would it work quicker on that button?
I'm thinking it is either that raise solenoid not working or leaking.
Any thoughts?

Just pulled in.. There is NO ONE here.. Normally there is 1 or 2 empty spots but there are probably 10 only 2 coaches are parked outside right now..

Anyway did a once over the coach getting ready for our trip to denver for the broncos playoff game this weekend and realized I had 0 air pressure in the tank and the 110 air pump was running.. Started the coach let the engine compressor take it up to 115 lbs then turned it off.. Lost about a2 lbs a minute.. Obviously have a large air leak.. My guess is I had water in an airline it froze and cracked a line.. Hope the 110 compressor is still ok..

Called Newell , they said bring her up we will get it fixed in the morning. A quick 2 hour drive after dinner and I am here.. Love living this close to the factory and the awesome service they have always given me. Anytime I had a problem they get me right in and always take care of me..appreciate the greatest coach company and customer service in the world..

Now if I can keep from leaving with coach 701 instead of my current 512 .. My wife would be happy.. Lol

The teddy heater under the sofa runs very intermittently, maybe 1 in 100 heating cycles. Seems like it must be a loose electrical connection but I do not see any. Do the wires to this feed from the back of the unit? Has anyone had a similar issue?
