  1. Hold on if that is the case then i have an 85 chassis even though 84 is written on the front bumper. Entirely possible ill do the vin test to see whos mistaken And that is the case it says 1984 right on the vin plate but the decoder says 1985 ill take a picture for you
  2. Yes the hitch is oem from dolphin But dolphin says straight up it has no towing capAcity It is a contradiction. Totem hauls his harley with a 22re toyhome but not using that bumper
  3. I think you have been cooking the trans the entire time as waiter said the seal blows when the transmission fluid is too hot. Perhaps some toyota engineering When youre reassembled change out the atf in the trans. Cut off the end of the fitting and get a hose clamp.
  4. PIn eureka ca at uhaul it was 1.99 in december. Now its 2.99 overall i would suspect it to be 1.99 again in few months. But i dont care. Propane cOnversion is something for people with cheap propane. I recomend against conversion if propane is more expensive than gas. But i strongly recomend against responding to dotn assinine and uneducated posts im actually done for this week
  5. Ya well the list shows basically a delivery a year. Its actually almost comPletely useless i wont waste more time on it. I lived there i bought it for 1.75 meaning that list has no indicator of what it sells for
  6. On that list in orego n i see many deliveries for 1.99 a gallon in wasbington county wherd i lived.e But i know it cost 1.75 at full retail in 2013 It says some cost 5.91 too. i dont think that list is any help or even useful. Here in downtown san jose the price is 2.99 today at uhaul 50 c below regular gas up almost 1.50 this month I wouldnt convert a car to propane unless its in the 2.00 range. If you live i a place with no cheap propane i recomend against propane conversion. Lol
  7. I would wait til the price goes back down before buying a lot of propane. You can read about the shortage in the news.
  8. Hey i filled my tank for i believe 1.75 a gallon and thats at a gas station. But if your area is expensive it might be. I doubt it. In an urban area they can fix the price In humboldt its still below 2 dollars retail. Previous to the recent spike in price
  9. Buy it from amerigas or whoever sells it to homes. more commonly seen in rural areas but probably within 10 miles of your house Here i san josr i see gas stations charge 3 a gallon. Not at gas stations.
  10. True that a rv doesnt usually drive a lot likd a taxi The kits are normally for off road toyotas Seems best for a 22r that particular seller
  11. No one else is confused derrick. If your toyhome gets 15 mpg at 3.50 it gets the equivalent of 40 mpg at 1.25 a gallon Its the cost. Please stop posting for a few days you are wasting our time. Miles per dollar. Its actually how the epa rates electric and propane vehicles.
  12. The price has spiked recently but in general is below 150 or less obviously. Good link derrick
  13. In portland its under 2dollars but in cali sometimes i see three. But thats just a high retail price if you have a propane car you buy it from the people selling it to homez Well if youre paying half as much you have twice thd miles per dollar. Its not actually any more per gallon . I dont think anyone else was confused but you.
  14. http://toyotamotorhome.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=5993&view=&hl=&fromsearch=1 It would definitely cause a problem like this. Btw wow your motorhome has had a lot of trouble. Honestly toyota transmissions cook in easy to fix ways i think you have given us heart with your misfortune. American transmissions just stick with no warning
  15. Propane is a actually in a shortage at the moment Here on the west coast its normally under 2 a gallon. Actually 150 around portland The best kit on that page is the 22r dual fuel kit Now for a strAight conversion you can make your own for much cheaper Propane conversion is actually common in older class c motorhomes not suprisingly I wonder if someone with a toyhome will try it out
  16. http://www.gotpropane.com/p4.html I gave it some thought when i saw the last diesel conversion Well for literally a fraction of that cost you can get gas mileage equivalent to 40 mpg or more depending o what propane goes for in your area. This is something from the 4x4 forum but i seriously think it makes more sense for a toyhome. In mexico the main taxi fleets use nissan sentras with propane conversion kits and basically run them 24 7
  17. Derrick if you do own a toyota motorhome just take a pictiure of it . Have you ever driven it? Has it been a long time? If you do just type the vin into that website and tell us what comes out
  18. Im not sure how many years different a chassis can be from the engine in it. But im sure it can be one yeAr at least
  19. You dont think it peculiar to go to a forum for like 7 years and not have pi ture of your rv a story or even a project to show? We all do
  20. Ya a junkyard engine would have a different vin plate and odometer sticker. I honestly dont think the computer and wiring harness are compatible but not sure
  21. Ya possibly but it is an 85 model. You do understand the body is just a body thd engine can be put in later. When i got it like year and a half ago i wondered if it was a first gen 22re but it isnt. Every other 85 dolphin ive seen in person and i can see one right now is a 4 speed 22r
