No clunks and the steering is tight. But my link from steering box to kingpin the boots are gone. So looking at options. mine is a 2003 A1 with only 11,000 miles on it. With 90 psi in the tires and full load it takes the bumps like a champ but time says I should be changing them out.

We’re did you find each of those items?

Updating everything I can. I convinced State Farm to resubmit it to the underwriters. This time with 50 some pictures of the completed vehicle inside and out, a detailed list of everything on it including pricing, all of its features and a copy of the registration proving it was registered as a...

I finally hit the road and figured I would give this post an update. With all the tanks full and all of our gear in it I took it to the scale and it weighed in at 26,800lbs! I’m happy to report I’m getting 6.5mpg! I was expecting it to go down but nope. Oh and I’ve decided not to drive it any...

I’ll send it right over to you for one of those sexy fiberglass ones! Sounds like a deal to me.

Not at all.

Everything back together. Notice there are no cable steps? That’s the next project.

Pulled the winch apart for painting. I figured I should paint some other items while it was all apart. Loads of fun trying to find just the right mounting position for the winch controller and that’s the wireless remote controller plugged in, inorder for the wires to reach but also miss the...

We finally finished the build and left out for our first trip in it. We left February 27 going out for two months and today we are in Ocoee National Forest on a lake front with drizzling rain so I have some downtime to post the progress. Test fitting accomplished now to take it all apart weld...

Next big project was fitting the 25,000 lb 24 volt winch up front. My goal was to mount it as high and as close to the round cross member as possible. Here is how I did it.

I just finished my conversion to a full blown motorhome and with full diesel, full fresh water, full 50 gasoline tank for generator back up and all of our gear. I weighed in at 26,800 lbs and I have just driven about 1,100 miles in 10 days from Florida to central Georgia and it works great only...

That’s the experience I’ve seen. I hear it inside the cab but I’ve been watching for evidence of how load it is to people near by on side walks or bikes any time I’ve been near someone they never reacted as if there was no increase in noise. I kept expecting them to turn their head as if I blew...

Thanks I’ll keep that in mind.

Thanks, My mind was already going down that path of how I could make that happen. I’ve also discovered the second part is true. When cruise control is on a slight tap on the brakes disengages the cruise and starts the exhaust brake operation. I’ve also found if if I turn the cruise control to...

Well that sucks, how did you figure that out?

I have a 2003 M1078A1 the button labeled warmup/off/retard. I’ve just realized hope wonderful that switch is when switched to retard. That is how you activate the exhaust brake. I’ve never driven a vehicle with this feature and love how well it works and will save my brake shoes from excessive...

When I tested it, it was still just a standard M1078 empty.
