G'day,

I contacted Dan Stuckey regarding this question as he manufactures new frames; below you will find his response published with his
permission.

QUOTE

Hi Rob

It's good to hear from you--hope you are well and prospering.

Re the frame, the traditional wisdom has been that you only jack a GMC up at the rear where the bogeys are attached. Lots of people
have used jacks on other places and you can easily tell that by the lower flange on the side rails being bent upward. The original
frames were mild steel .125" gauge and to be truthful (is there any other way?) I don't find much evidence that doing that has been
all that harmful--yeah, it looks bad but who sees it? I haven't had any of my clients tell me of results of jacking on any place
other than at the bogeys on my frames--I usually warn them to do any jacking only at the bogey brackets--but I would guess that
there wouldn't be much, if any, bending of the flanges if they jacked elsewhere--the rail material is visibly heavier stuff yet it
only adds a couple of hundred pounds to the total weight.

Frame rail set #39 just left my shop a couple of weeks ago. I have been using what we call in Canada a Class H steel that is heat
treated with about twice the tensile strength of the original spec and with a 50% heavier gauge at .188". All my most recent frames
have been galvanized with a process for the most extreme conditions--before that I sandblasted the brand new steel after all the
cutting, drilling, welding and then epoxy primed and painted everything. The galvanizing process is a little more expensive but
worth it, in my opinion. AMOF, I just took two front engine sub frames and one rear sub frame up to the galvanizer last Wed. The
engine sub frames are getting harder to find nowadays (I don't build them from scratch like the main frames) and I had to do some
metal surgery on them before galvanizing. With a fully galvanized frame--engine sub frame, mainframe, and rear sub frame, I think
you could leave your GMC with confidence to your great grandson in your will.

I hope this answers your question--it's probably more information than you wanted to hear.

On a personal note, I had back surgery in March and I'm not supposed to lift anything over 10 kilos--forever. How do you run a GMC
frame replacement business on that condition? The upshot of it all is that I have to get out of the business--know anyone who might
be interested? We're going to try and make it to the Elkhart International in Sept. and maybe make the GMC community aware of
what's happening on that account.

Best regards,

Dan

"What we have here is a failure to communicate..." Or more correctly a difference in semantics. My take is the frame is obviously
adequate in that
the coaches have lasted this long. It is however much lighter than I'd like... it flexes and is easily bent. I am of the opinion
that GM chassis
engineers lightened it as much as possible. They were overloading the drive line roughly twice what it was originally intended fir
so they took out
what they could. I'd like to drive one of the reframed coaches to see how much a stiffer frame improves the handling, if any.

About a year ago I noticed that the belt line shows the coach sags front and back. About 1/2" on the passenger side and 3/4" on the drivers side. I have replaced the body pads and the front and backs are not compressed any more than the center. I also raised the front and rear donuts to make up for the thicker pads.

Here are a few pics with measurements.

I thought those tape measures in the pictures, like radar detectors, were illegal in Canada. Do you only bring it out after dark when the metric police have gone home for the day? I sure hope they do not watch GMCnet.

Hey all, sorry I've been swamped with work and haven't had time to write back. I can't believe the community you guys have here, I really appreciate the warm welcome and all the great info! I feel a lot better equipped to handle my first few items on the to do list. I'm going to attempt the fluid changes this week hopefully as I've got some time off, I'll let you all know how it goes. Also I feel a lot better about the transmission now... Might add an external cooler myself on of these days. Thankfully the PO put a huge radiator in a couple years back, hopefully that helps her far into the future.

As far as the trans filter, I bought one directly from Sirum down in Florida. I'm assuming he wouldn't sell the chinese kind right? How do I tell?

Hi All,

Thinking seriously about heading out to see this one in CA.

Looks great, seems like great owners. It seems to be well known, has anyone seen it in person recently or have feedback on it if you've looked at it yourself and declined?

Hi Luke:
Talk to Jim Bounds in Fla. (Orlando area - I believe). If I remember correctly he built it in about 2005.
Good Luck,

Mike,

If and when Luke talks to Jim I can ga-ron-tee Jim will tell him it's the greatest since sliced bread!

Every coach that Jim has worked on is also!

Hopefully it really is.

I'm going to take the journey to look at it! If there are any others on the West Coast that list members are fond of, please let me know. I'd like to have a look at two or three at least.

Andrew,

Hate to tell you but AFAIK nowadays they are all made in China! If you monitor eBay you might get lucky and find one of these:

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/general-pictures/p59532-tf-169.html

However, if you bought it from Sirum hopefully he will have checked it.

Review this sequence of photos for additional information:

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/g6759-transmission-filter.html

When you remove the old filter check and make sure there are no o-rings up inside the port the filter goes in.

Thank you for adding your signature file with location...now can I twist
your arm to give John Shotwell of thee Registry your TZE number ?
And while I'm at it, have you signed up for the Black List. You don't have
to be an expert in anything, but a friendly voice at the end of the
phone...you are friendly aren't you...goes a long way in helping a stranded
GMCer !

Thanks

We know the owners well and have worked on the coach.
I would say that you need to plan on looking at it and then driving it back.
Call me should you want to dis cuss.

Luke -

If you're heading to California to look at coaches - and if a 23' is an option - take a look at Chuck Bott's coach...

NEW | 1977 Birchaven
CA | $30,000 | listed 7-7-17
Chuck Botts | chuckbotts4@gmail.com | 858-449-7376

Good Luck !
