Here is a better diagram with all the necessary bushings and parts for the end links with part numbers.
Googling part numbers brings up lots of places to buy.

They are there. The part discontinued is the whole metal end link. Here are the bushings

Ignore that it might say front. Same bushings for rear
-
This page should have all the bushings but it also has some stuff you don't need. You can sort through them
You can also search this site to see what other types people have bought.
The poly bushings are supposed to be better, like Energy Suspension. I just don't know the part numbers for those

Filon is very thin. The only way to get a smooth durable finish is to glue it to a hard surface. Goboard might work for that but don't know. They do make a Goboard sealant that might work

Got an email from another member about guy who does Sunrader windows in Bend Or. I don't do Facebook but this might be helpful to anyone who needs them. Know nothing about their work but sounds like he does a lot of other Sunrader stuff too.

I also talked to Dean Elena yesterday in Napa Ca. He's still making the windows and since he is the one who probably built your Sunrader he would be my first choice.

I think this would look classy. Used by itself the weight is less than the combined weight of luan and FRP.

Just using the water pump with water from the tank tells me pressure isn't the issue. You've just got a leaky pipe somewhere. Only you can find it

You have air suspension bags under there. One of them needs more air. don't think it could be completely shot of it would be more noticeable.
Important to keep them inflated to a minimum pressure. Find the valves and inflate evenly. I would suggest 60 lbs pressure

No coffee grounds on grey tank. They don't break down. With a French press you pour the coffee out, grounds are just damp. Throw them in garbage can.

I doubt the old glass was tempered. Is there a tempered mark on the remaining glass? Maybe safety glass with the film coating. Your never going to find either the exact glass or the whole window. A new custom RV window that size can cost up to 2000 dollars. Your not far from Denver. Hundreds of glass shops. Only other alternative is to use plexiglass.

Go to a glass shop and have them replace your broken window. Just needs new glass. Frame looks fine

If you're going to replace them all, upgrade to led and buy a matched set. Like these. look to be very similar to shape and mounting you already have.
Or just search for ones you like

Ok so this one is slightly different but the mounting pattern is the same so no new screw holes. Be a good replacement

Pretty sure this is the one as long as they've never been changed out. I do see one that looks more oval but not the one you need.

They come in amber too. Model number 349. Click just under the link I sent

You need to buy one for horizontal use. Vent location is important

Just seal it. I tried to help someone else with these flat front windows and discovered the rubber seal is not replaceable. Strange offset. As to what sealant, I don't know what is best. I usually use clear Flex Seal.

Because you still have the foolie, your brakes are the same as a standard Toyota 3/4 ton truck from that year.

If you don't want to buy through the mail you will at least have a bunch of model numbers to look for locally

Inner and outer bearings are the same as front axle on a 4x4. You do have to pull the axle so draining the diff would be a good idea. Also important that you replace the axle seals. Big job

Your tank is a horizontal DOT tank and must be removed from the camper and filled in the upright position. Disconnect the regulator and that is where it is filled. Just like a barbeque tank at that point.

Not complicated. Remove the pan, remove the filter and put in new filter and gaskets including new pan gasket. Do not overtighten pan bolts.

Please stay away from the Sikaflex. The weatherstrip seals just fine if you fit it in tightly. You saw that video of windows getting installed. Notice how he cuts it too long and forces it into the slot. If you must a tiny beard of regular silicone around the outside edge. You're doing too much nice work to have an ugly gunky mess on your windows.

Yes the newer locking weatherstrip is narrower than the original. Still it has been used by dozens of Sunrader owners with no problems. I myself have done at least 5. As for your thinner cut out opening I suspect it has something to do with your sanding the backside of the fiberglass. Don't understand why you felt you needed to do that. Thickening the cutout shouldn't be that hard. Add some of this to the inside of the cutout where needed. I would cut it down to 1/2 inch width though. No need for it to be wider.
It also comes in 1/16 thick. I think that might be a better fit

Radio is run off of truck battery. If left on long enough it will run it down. Shore power doesn't charge truck battery. Phone with Bluetooth speakers works great for music and you can recharge phone from coach battery 12 volt outlet

Yes, 87 and on 1 roof support in 18 footer and 2 in the full sized ones. Not all of them sag severely though. I think my 86 has only about a half inch of sag. Last boyfriend was close to 6 foot and he wasn't bumping his head. Original poster should think more about a Sunrader 4x4 choice. It doesn't have a V6. Only choices are 22re and a very few turbo 22re's. Not a lot of power. Also they sell for a ton. Friend sold his a few months ago for $34,000 and I've seen some sell for more. Makes looking into a 4x4 conversion look more affordable
