I understand the stuff in the middle, but where does the wire shelving go?

On the roll bar for storage??

Need room for the grand kids. Thanks LR.

Definitely! Got to sort out a few things with the generator, then it'll be ready for adventure.

congrats!

No. It's only 5 feet longer than my class C. It's all behind you, lol!

Nice new to you RV. What chassis is it? What drivetrain? Ford or Chevy? What is wrong with the generator?

I had a Beaver for a few years. Can't say I was REAL fond of it but it was an OK motorhome.

It's a 1998 Ford chassis with the 460 V8. I prefer the Ford drivetrain over Chevy. It's also a wide body coach, so 6" wider than standard class A's.
The generator runs, but throttles up and down constantly like something going on with the governor.

There is a good generator guy in Ukiah. He put a new fuel pump in our generator last week.

He also did our annual valve adjustment a couple months ago at the 400 hour scheduled.

I use to work at a RV shop as a line mechanic so I use to do a lot of work on Ford chassis and drivetrain. Let me know if I can help you with any issues.

Watch your coolant temps when towing and what you put into the RV as far as weight goes. It's a good idea to scale it to see how much you have. I've replace more than one fried engine because people were so overweight.

He does all kinds of generators. Good luck, let me know how it goes.

Too many overweight people driving RVs?
