The bushings from factory are simple nylon, from my knowledge; there are Never Fail bushings that are aftermarket and claim to never need lubricating for life. I prefer the brass, wet bolt, heavy duty shackle kit. I did not have success with the NeverFail bushings. Brian

Yes the Honda 3000EU will power one A/C up to 15,000 Btu with some power left over - usually a 15,000 will take 20-23A inrush and 15-16A continuous running. A 3000 puts out about 26A, if my memory serves me correctly. Brian

Re: SmartGauge Battery Monitor - any experiences ? My knowledge is with the Xantrex LinkLite; the Victron appears to be similar with a shunt. The Balmar uses voltage only, and I do not think it will be as accurate as a direct current measuring (i.e. shunt) device like the previous two. Other...

Went looking on the web, but could not find a MM1012 model, I found a MMS1012 (pure sine wave) and chatted with my brother who just installed the MM1212 (modified sine wave). He is very happy with the unit and chose it for similar reasons as yourself. He installed a small sub panel after the...

There is an electric heating element (about 1,600 Watt if I remember correctly) and a fan that blows air across the element to provide heated air to the coach. There is also a temperature control that allows the element to cycle to maintain the setting on the temperature control (simple knob...

I would stay with PEX B; they all meet the same requirements and B is less costly than A, and there is some "concern" over A having some chemical leaching in domestic water applications (but it is still approved for domestic use). In my research the A, B, & C are indicative of the...

That is how the axles are aligned to achieve the correct spec on camber and toe; the axle tubes are bent up/down (usually up) or forward/back to achieve correct alignment specs. A hydraulic cradle/ram assembly is used by the alignment shop. Bends in axles are normal. Watch for tire wear to...

The RVIA standard disallows 240V. Specifically RVIA code does not allow the installation of a 120/240V generator; RV gensets have to be 120V only, if it has two windings they have to be wired in phase. Brian PS European RVs use 240 as standard.

Roof mounted air conditioners have a thin mesh filter on the inlet air screen. The inlet air screen can be removed usually by depressing the clip on the edge of the screen. Here is a you tube video, ignore the first minute. I don't believe the furnaces have any filters on the inlet air...

Re: ATF: Landmark - Suspension Lubrication Wet bolts are the bolts that attach the spring to the spring hanger/equalizer. They are bolts with a grease zerk on the head of the bolt. The bolt has a passage way through the centre exiting out the side of the bolt halfway down the shaft. It adds...

Welcome reveric! Glad you got my PM from the other site. BrianGlenn

I have similar white foam for a while after de-winterization if I do not flush ALL pink antifreeze, even dead legs like low point drains, outside taps, washer and dryer taps, etc. My thoughts are if the pink antifreeze is left in these dead legs it slowly migrates (diffusion mixing) back into...
