  1. Think they might look like one of these. http://www.all-rite.com/advanced_search_result.php?search_in_description=1&keywords=glazing+bead&Submit.x=17&Submit.y=12 I replaced all the glazing bead on my Tiger Provan. Easy job. easier if you soak it in hot soapy water first. snaps right in another possibility is that it's screw cover trim. http://www.all-rite.com/screw-covers-trims-c-52.html Still easy job. Prices on these things can often be found cheaper on ebay once you figure out the right size. Local rv store should have them too so you can make sure size is right Linda S
  2. I also replaced mine with a CFS 2 row a couple of years ago and I can't get my thermostat above halfway even in 100 degree temps. MIne is an 86 though. What do you have now instead of a factory clutch fan. I'm betting whatever it is that is the culprit. Temp sensor would have an even steady rise if it was faulty. Linda S
  3. Nationwide auto aucton site. I think I have narrowed it down to the right years http://www.autobidmaster.com/carfinder-online-auto-auctions/result/?eventId=addFilter&filterName=years&filterValue=1990-1997 Linda S The one in Portland looks perfect.
  4. I would just not bring it up. Apparently Motor vehicle departments across the country have been ignoring those old Sunraders for 30 plus years. I have never seen one with added clearance lights but plenty still on the road. Linda S
  5. Why would you do that. It didn't come with them and I have never heard of a state retroactively requireing extra lights on a 30 year old motorhome. I have seen an awful lot of older Sunraders and spoken to many owners and no one has ever gotten a ticket for something their motorhome wasn't built with. Since they were built in California and we have the same laws, clearance light laws are federal, How were any of them legaly sold in the first place. I've have seen many motorhomes built after 1970 that had no provision for clearance lights. Don't open a door of headaches if you don't have to. Linda S
  6. My friend Gail gets record prices on ebay for the toyota motorhomes she refurbishes.Details them to a perfect shine and finishes the inside like a luxury bed and breakfast. Towels ,linens just looks like you could live there immediately. Like I said presentation is everything Linda S
  7. I think you need to list it on ebay. You will get the max price and who knows how high it could go. Description and presentation can add thousands to the price. Start bidding at 6000 and reserve at whatever you can handle letting it go for. Lower starting price gets things going and bidding gets people excited Linda S
  8. Karin you have clearance lights? I have never seen an older Sunrader with the larger front window that has any more than the one I posted a picture of. Just side lights. Where are yours Linda s
  9. Doors are on ebay all the time. Just look for refrigerator door and the outside ones are the ones that come up. Or refrigerator vent. That cardboard thing needs some holes in it. Fridge draws in air there to work properly. Rotted wood hardens up nicely with some resin and hardener painted on. Try to get it underneath the siding too and screws might hold. For all your other duct tape repairs you should try some eterna bond tape. White so it will look better and sticks forever. Water won't loosen it and it will keep the water out Linda S
  10. Thats a very odd shape. This place has the largest selection of shower pans that I know of but I don't see anything like yours. I would talk to some people about getting it fiberglassed over or coated in some way to save it. Don't remove exisiting pan until you have some other option. They usually don't live through removal Linda S http://www.pellandent.com/RV_Products_List.aspx?CategoryID=164
  11. That would include the mirrors. Not coach only. I was always told side mirrors were included in the over 80 requirement for clearance lights but now I have no clue. Linda S
  12. The widest section of my 1986 Sunrader outside including screw cover trim is 81 1/4 inches. If I removed the trim I could get it down to 80 1/2. Linda S
  13. No it won't just fall out but it will come out easily and clean quickly. I have a couple of Orgreenic and some other ones I don't remember. I bought them all at discount stores for cheap. Cheaper than Walmart. All are holding up well. Linda S
  14. Yeah all this stuff not right for this site. Someones private life even if it is on the internet is not what we are here for. Were done now. You may continue to talk about solar panels but I will delete anymore of this other topic Linda S
  15. Yes I know Derek but for some reason when you do it it's funny. All alone there in the frozen North you get a free pass Linda S
  16. I think these are the right weep hole covers. Remember they are not supposed to close the holes, just stop dust from getting in. Look around on this site and you might find the latches too http://www.pellandent.com/Motorhome_Product_Details.aspx?ProductID=6388&Return=71 Linda S
  17. Cast iron in a motorhome is just way too heavy and difficult to store. I have never had a green pan deconstruct on me or show even any signs of wear. I use them everyday at home and in my motorhome and I throughly recommend them. Did I say lightweight. No your omelett won't slide out like you greased it with wd40 but pretty close and the pan will clean easily. There's always someone out there that will poo poo everything. In this case I just don't believe it. Did I mention I cook a lot. Like catering small parties and work functions. Experience is everything Linda
  18. Look for stuff tagged green ware. Ceramic finish non stick very durable. Orgreenic, Thermolon and some other brands. I consder myself a pretty good cook and I love it. Linda S And I actually cook in my motorhome. Microwave is for reheating my coffee only
  19. As a Moderator here I think I should comment but JD you have left me speechless Linda S
  20. This is not correct. My Nissan Motorhome does not oil the bearings with gear oil either. Nissan had a full float axle available 2 years before Toyota. Looks very similar to the Toyota but different lug pattern. Linda S
  21. They are the same width and height as my 86 which has clearance lights. The lights on the fender in the front are Toyota lights from that year, not clearance lights. So yes it has 2 clearance lights on the back on each side, that's it. Makes no sense to me. Linda S
  22. Yes they are all like that. All the early ones with the bigger front overhead window have no lights up top. I do see a side light in the back but none over the cab Linda
  23. It's not like they made that axle just for US motorhomes and box trucks. Unknowing Aussie posted that pic of the Dyna with the same axle used on millions of commercial trucks all over the world. When the production is that high manufacturers keep it in-house, they don't shop it out Linda S
  24. Well I did some looking last night and lots of states have vehicle safety inspections and the clearance lights on an RV must be in working condition. So I would not recommend removing them if you ever might want to sell it or might move to another state. Here in California they only care about smog. No lights or brakes is fine. Linda S
