I was reading a thread on the Wanderlodge forum and they were talking about finding less expensive sources for the zone circulation pumps.
the official aquahot price for these pumps is $800.
the exact same pump is $210 at this particular place.

would have to make sure the connections are the same but they appear so.
here is a picture of the pumps i just took off of my coach

This is an information only thread from Newellgurus and you will not be able to reply or post to it. To keep posting about the rally, go to the other thread.
BLACK HILLS MINI RALLY JUNE 22-29
We are set for our rally. We wanted to get this out so people can make their reservations. Below are the details from The Elkhorn Ridge RV Resort. We will compile a list of things to see and do over the next few months and post that as well. Our crossover dates when we would like everyone to be there is the last 4 days (June 25-29), however almost everyone so far will be there the entire week. The Black Hills is a very beautiful area and the people are great so we know you will all have a great time. We look forward to meeting you all. No requirement to have a Newell Coach.
Our get togethers are very casual with potluck dinners, tours of each others coaches, informal tech sessions on how to fix things and how things work as well as we might even actually fix something on someones coach...that has been known to happen. Bring any spare parts you want to trade, barter, give away or sell.
We err on the side of not being very organized so we can each do what we want. Many of us have attended 2 previous mini-rallys like this and they were an incredible amount of fun.
We will likely have at least one formal potluck.
There is no fee and you just cover your own expenses at the RV park etc.

I removed a working motosat sat unit set up for direct tv. It will bring in normal channels but not HD. If you need it or parts from it please contact me.
A class action lawsuit has been filed against the manufacturers of Norcold gas absorption refrigerators. The lawsuit contends that they knowingly sold a product that was a serious fire risk and did not tell regulators or the public.

My 12v blower motor for my front plenum is seized up.It's located in the first bay behind the front wheels. The box is made of aluminum and plastic with rivets and aluminum sealing tape. Looks like I have to drill the rivets to access the dual squirrel cage fan motor. Does anyone know the model of the motor? I think Russ said he has done this if I recall correctly.
Thanks,

Guys when we bought our 84 coach this summer along with the many things it came with tucked in here and there was a RoadMaster tow bar. I forgot the model but it is one of the higher levels. I have a 2006 Jeep Wrangler I would like to set up to tow. The coach has a hutch and is wired for lights.
Local RV place wants $459 for baseplate and another $450 to install it. They also want $250 to wire the jeep for lights. I can find the baseplate online for $329 I think. So my questions? Should I have a pro do this or can I install it? Should I wire the lights or should I just buy the magnetic ones for $50 bucks and stick it on the jeep each time we tow? Any other pointers or suggestions would be appreciated.
Does any one have a 45' friendly campground somewhere between Sioux City, SD and Mitchell, SD?
