Thanks - I had not seen the "E350/450 handling problems..." thread before. This was just a front end alignment...

I recently replaced most of my front end components- new upper/lower ball joints, new tie rods, new radius arm bushings. Took it to Southern Tire Mart for alignment (see attached pic) and just drove it last weekend with my Subaru Forest in tow. Motorhome seemed to drift more within the lane...

Not very well - first time they've done anything for me. But, I think it' the E/Parking brake - I released the pedal again and the wheel now spins and the drum popped right off! They also adjusted the E-brake so I'm thinking something is going on there. Not sure how to fix it...

They're not open today......and I really need to try and get to my parent's... Obvioulsy, if I can't get it fixed then I'm stuck here until at least Monday.

I never take my coach anywhere for work as I try to do most things myself, but I was in a hurry this time leaving town so i had a local shop grease the u-joints and adjust the rear brakes on my '93 Ford E350. We we're heading out of town this evening and I started to smell the brakes - the rear...

I never installed it! The leaking has really slowed although there is still a slight leak. I decided to "leave well enough alone" for the time being. I have a spare bolt and am keeping an eye on it. The bolt is a cheap fix and I'm looking at my bolt kit and it contains 2 rubber o-rings.

I am attaching some pics - it looks like to me, according to 84southwind above - that most of these were installed backwards. The most forward joint looks correct (IMG_1270 - 3rd pic) - the one connecting to the transmission, but the others look backward (1266 and 1269 are connected to the...

We've had a lot of rain here the past few days, but I am going to try and crawl under today. I may post a pic or 2 later... Thanks for the replies! I am HOPING that I can just undo the carrier bearing bolts and lower the shaft enough to turn and get clearance. Pretty sure I will have to have...

Rotating the shaft also did not allow access and I don't think I can remove some of the zerks either - just no clearance to get a wrench on. Do I have to completely remove the 3 piece driveshaft? Or can I just loosen and lower some? At the carrier bearing as suggested above?

Yes, it's a 29 ft Class C on a Ford E350...and yes, I've tried the rubber hose approach. I am really to the point that the only way I see doing this is to drop the driveshaft some...

Getting a bit frustrated, but I have tried just about every type of grease gun fitting I can find - 90 degree, needle tip, etc and I just can't get my gun on to the zerk on any of my u joints. I'm looking at removing the 3 part driveshaft just enough to reach the zerks (I had these replaced...

Bolts are at 9 and 3... Is the Style Plus worth the extra $$? More than a $100 more...but I like the idea of the porcelain bowl, just not sure about the foot flush. Since the toilet already sits up on a 6" ledge I'm concerned about my wife's ability to flush it with her foot. She is leaning...

I have an older Class C - 1993 Cobra Passport - and I need to replace the toilet. It's a low profile hand flush and I'm probably wanting to go back with the same. It sits up on a raised platform against the wall - 6 inches above the main RV floor. Removal looks straightforward but I'm not...

Installed the new thermostat today and tried it out - seems to be working great.  Heater shut off, tested water and at 130F... Things don't usually go this easy for me!! Thanks for the help! ryan

Perfect - thought that was the case...and that answers the wiring install concerns as well. Thanks folks. ryan
