chassis

Hi all! I have a 2025 Vision XL gas on the E53 chassis. Totally love it, but there are a few chassis issues that I'm concerned about. Would love some feedback before I take it to a Ford shop. Thank you for any wisdom on my below concerns!! 1. Thumping - When I am rolling at about 1-3 mph...

My 2008 Magna's AC is blowing unconditioned air. I had Premier repair the AC for the same issue in October of last year. We are in New Mexico, headed to Searcy, AR. Are there any CC capable AC repair shops that we will pass by on our way to Searcy?

I am wondering how many of you have added a Safe T Plus steering stabilizer to your rig and if you feel it’s an absolute plus to have

The orange "P" light for "Park" on the shifter lever stays illuminated permanently long after shutting the vehicle off. This just started a couple of days ago while programming my Android phone to Android Auto on the Kenwood system that was installed by a previous owner. I have no idea if there...

I'm struggling as usual!!! Is the wiper switch original to the P30 wiring or 'new to the Gulfstream wiring? I'm fairly certain that mine aren't wired correctly. The switch is a 3 position switch ( off, on,on) but it only works on one of the ons and, I think, the wipers sweep when the switch...

Any further news on the decision to discontinue the F53 chassis after 2026? Does this increase the value of your current Class A or decrease the value?

I have a 2001 Four Winds Funmover on a Ford E450 chassis that goes through tires like popcorn. I just changed three tires yesterday that had only 2 1/2 years and about 5,000 miles on them. I was running Goodyear Wrangler truck tires, which did OK for awhile, but they were starting to go. Is...

Looking for tips and things to watch for: we are going to change the chassis battery. Going to get the new one from Mercedes in Fl. We have lots of "things" coming off the original battery including an extra post off the positive (which is the original from 2020). Any pointers of which we...

Our 2026 Jayco 30Z on a e450 ford chassis has extremely dim headlights. Has anyone else noticed this or have a solution? Would replacing the original bulbs with an upgrade help?

Hello Yall, According to Spartan, it is recommended to start the engine for 3-5 minutes once a week. I have been doing so with the slides and the jacks extended out. I noticed the jacks actually move while the engine is running!!! Am I supposed to retract the jacks before I start the engine...

Everyone make sure the u-joints on that shaft get greased, ask me how I know. After an exciting evening on the side of I75 in Florida with a failed u-joint, hoping a mobile repair service guy can remove the old shaft and find a new replacement. Pretty angry because I pay for service every year...

Question, Our standard Freightliner Chassis warranty expires in early April 2026 and I am wondering if the Freightliner Factory extended warranty is worth it. Not worried about the Cummins B6.7 360 since it was a 5 year warranty and the Allison 3000 also has a 5 year warranty so opinions on the...

My 24 xg32 (22 F550 ) with the 500w solar option had a dead starter battery (below 11v) after the sun went down both of the last 2 nights. I took it home without shore power two days ago leveled it and put the slides out. I replaced the house batteries before storing for the winter hooked up to...

The author is Dave Solberg and he worked for Winnebago for many years: Ford to discontinue F53 gas chassis. Are large Class A motorhomes doomed? In that article he confirms that Winnebago has stopped producing gas Class A's. That's only a bit surprising because all of 2025 other manufacturers...

I crawled under my Tiffin to change the oil and saw these and am so confused… what are these for?

I could really use some help here. My 2007 Mandalay 40E's chassis batteries & house batteries are dead. The coach has been sitting for 3 months while away. Usually the solar keeps all batteries topped off. Well, wouldn't you know it...the solar controller shows an error code "E03" (not...

Hi Everyone, we purchased a 2020 Coachmen Mirada 35OS. After driving it home from the dealer in Houston to our house in Austin, I decided suspension upgrades were in order. I just installed a rear trac bar and sumo springs in the front. I also purchased and was going to install a roadmaster AUX...

My 2012 Thor Hurricane 29X chassis battery switch will not disconnect.

I recently brought my 2009 Bay Star into a repair shop and they told me I had a leak. The rig hasn’t been used since the summer. They aid it would be 185 just to run a camera and diagnose where it’s coming from. I know that after sitting a while some do have a small leak from sitting. Here is a...

I just bought a 2024 24C with the E-450 chassis and I've noticed that it wants to dart around slightly, especially if I hit a bump. Before I bought this one I tried out a 2020 Nexus and another Jayco 24C, all on the E-450 chassis but they were both 2020 models and they did the same thing. It...

Why did this section disappear?

Good Morniing! Sorry in Advance for the long post, but a little frustrated with my chassis battery. We recently purchased a 2025 24T on the Sprinter chassis and stayed in it 10 days initially and then left for 2 more weeks prior to returning. When we left, I disconnected the inverter, removed...

Hi everyone, Several years ago, I began a chassis swap. I put the body of a 1989 Airstream B190 (Ford E350) onto a 1994 E350 with a Quigley 4x4 conversion and 7.3IDI. We got it to the point where it ran and drove (though the E4OD wouldn't shift by itself), but the project stalled for a number...

….and chassis batteries not charging when plugged into shore power. I have a friend with a 2020 New Aire and this is what he is seeing. House bats only charge when plugged in and chassis bats only charge when driving. Thoughts?
