I've used Sem a few times. Used the prep spray before too. Maybe lasts inside but doesn't outside. Discoloring and flaking in about a year

The only thing I've seen used successfully is white garage door seal.
I tried it but I think the stuff I bought was too thick so not flexible enough. My girlfriend Gail did the replacement a few times and results were perfect.
Unfortunately, Gail has passed, and I have no one to ask anymore. I do know she used contact cement for the adhesive and put a tiny bead of caulk along both edges to seal and finish the look.

Poster hasn't checked in since he originally posted but really doesn't matter. The motorhome he's talking about is a Ford

My 86 came with factory valve stem extenders for the inside rear wheel. Tried to install easier access ones but with the 6 hole rims it wasn't possible. I did put some on my Nissan Sunrader. 5 or 7 inch, don't remember. Metal flex ones. Ebay was the only place I could find them that short. If you search the site for valve stem extenders you might find someone else who bought some hopefully with a link

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

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

I've always bought the Everstart Maxx both for deep cycle and engine starting batteries. Always lasted a very long time.
Last summer I bought a regular Everstart deep cycle because the Maxx was no longer available. I haven't had any problems with it.
I think the down grade was warranty related. People use them in boats and drain them completely and a 3 year warranty is too long for something so easy to abuse. They still make the Maxx for car starting batteries. First one in my Sunrader was 11 years old when I finally needed to replace it.
