Good afternoon all,
As I mentioned previously, I am picking up my new coach on Friday in Albuquerque, NM. I have been reading about what things to bring along and what spares I should have available. Unfortunately, I will be unable to carry tools with me on the airplane so I may look for a small set before I head home.
One of the things everyone talks about having spare is the Transmission Governor Gear. According to the repair notes, the transmission in this coach has been rebuilt twice. Since the notes say 'rebuilt' not 'replaced' I am assuming that the transmission still has the Governor Gear. Are these gears all the same? Can I just buy one as a spare, or are they specific to different transmission models?
Is there a link that shows how to replace this gear? I would just like to start my trip with as much knowledge as possible!

Bob,
Here's a good questions for starters. Are you a belt person, belt and
suspenders, or belt, suspenders, tape, and rope?
Second question is this. What does "rebuilt" mean?
Opinions follow:
If I had purchased a coach with "rebuilt" transmission I would put tranny
problems on the bottom of the list.
In my experience, you're more likely to be in need of replacing an exhaust
gasket before getting home.
In 2007 my wife, son and I flew to pick up our coach. It had 80,000 miles on
the engine, transmission, etc. There was a complete set of belts (of some
age) that the PO had in the coach. The coach had been driven but 2,000 miles
in the previous four years. The previous ten years were even less than that.
The first two owners put on most of the miles in the first 16 years of it's
life. The trip was from Charleston to Louisville, KY. Except for the stink
and noise from a bad exhaust and exhaust manifold it was uneventful. Of
course, the ride on the four-year-old tires with steel wheels wasn't what I
remembered from the 70's.
My suggestion is to be sure to have your AAA card, the black list and
another road service plan in effect in addition to your credit card and cell
phone. I'd also want to be sure there were some orange triangles in the
coach and an extension cord and hose. Also be sure the 50 to 30 and/or 50 to
20 amp adapters are in the coach.
Unless you're used to driving busses or other vehicles with a wide stance
and drivers seat forward of or above the front tires, plan to do some
practicing on turns, etc. before heading for the open road or a gas station
(those concrete curbs around the gas pumps can make tires look plumb ugly
and the driver plumb silly). Keep in mind it's wider than you think and that
you don't start a turn until you're into the turn. It isn't like a car.
Don't ask me how I know, ask Rob Mueller or someone else. (A wise man learns
from the experiences of others while a fool learns from his own.)
What you're getting into is risk management. You can be over prepared like a
boy scout and wind up with a lot of extra stuff on your first trip. If
you're a grease monkey then take a set of sockets. Otherwise, what I've
mentioned (above) and a truck tire gauge will do you well.
This you should do regardless of what kind of problem you have (if you have
one), call a Black Lister for thoughts before a tow truck shows up. Call a
Black Lister for opinions before a mechanic touches the coach. If the right
Black Lister is reached on the other end of the line they you'll have
nothing to worry about. Shucks, now that Roger Black can hear on the cell
phone, call for a good conversation whether you have a problem or not. If
you don't know what to say to him just ask him about riding in a helicopter
during the era before the GMC was produced.
Enjoy the ride.

Don't get too worried about that gear. I have had my GMC since 1981 and have probably 200,000 miles on it and I have never had to replace the gear.

The gear they are talking about is a little plastic gear mounted on the governor. It is simple to change if you have exhaust manifolds and a little harder to change if you have headers.
I believe ALL GMCs use the same gear. I have had a spare forever and have never needed it. If it does break you will loose the ability to shift out of first gear. You can still drive slowly to move it to a safe place while you wait for parts. I have moved several coaches cross country for people and never thought to bring along a spare gear.
If your coach is a 1975 or later (HEI ignition) I would consider bringing along a spare ignition module. I have had two of them die on me over the years. They are small and you are going to want a spare anyway. It is a 15 minute job to change it if it dies on the road. You can get them at most auto parts stores.
I prefer to buy only AC Delco modules which are a little more difficult to find. Dick Paterson always replaces them when he rebuilds distributors. He has the removed ones at GMCMI rallies which he gives away for free for people to carry as spares.
I would not worry about having a spare gear on this trip but I would eventually get a spare to carry.

Bob,
You can't carry tools on the aircraft but you can check them in.
You're going to need a set of tools to carry in the GMC so you might as well
buy a set to do so. If you don't you're going to have to transfer them back
and forth between your garage and the GMC.
I bought a set of tools from Harbor Freight to carry in Double Trouble the
first year I had it. Probably set you back a couple hundred bucks.
"HARBOR FREIGHT TOOLS ARE CRAP!" according to a few guys here; however, so
far the ones I bought have served me well!
Yes, all transmissions have the Governor Gear.
Yes, they are all the same.
Yes, you can buy one: http://www.appliedgmc.com/prod.itml/icOid/721
To replace the gear see Maintenance Manual X-7525 Page 7-32 Figures 21 and
22. Figure 22 shows the Governor Gear coming out attached to the bottom of
the Governor, that may or may not happen, you may need to fish it out.
You must have been a Boy Scout! ;-)

Yikes, I just looked at the satellite views of the area East of Albuquerque. I didn't realize the mountains were that big.
My problem is that I will be the only driver and I need to be back at work on Tuesday morning. This means I need to take the most direct route if possible. That being said, I really make an effort to NOT do stupid things.
So I guess will need to keep a closer eye on the weather than I had expected.
Thanks for the warning!

I would check in a tool set and not worry about spare parts.
Have you looked at the coach in person?
You might want a round trip ticket.

Bob, The current weather report for this week in Q is very mild for winter,
no snow. Check Google Travel, Accuweather for the rout with a 5 day forecast
for select cities along the way. I just came down with a bug and am not
thinking very clearly. . .
There are good truck lanes all the way up Sedillo Hill out of Q and then
pretty flat until the Appalachians.
Adiós. . .

Bob, Check the Blacklist to see if Al Chernoff in Abq or Emery Stora in
Santa Fe can look it over with you to make sure it's road worthy and what
you think it is... Make sure the bags are working and well as the eater
before you put water in it. I think it was winterized.

Ignition module - I'll second that motion. Gratefully, mine quit in the
driveway before I even got away from home for a rally.

Bob,
First, Welcome to wonderful world of GMCs! You are getting a lot of good
advice.
I know I was a little apprehensive when I bought my coach over a year ago
and was preparing for the journey home in my "new to me GMC". When I
arrived at the coach it was pouring rain. I mean POURING! I was driving
the coach with home made license plates, I figured the chances of getting
stopped for a license plate violation was just not going to happen in this
downpour! I worried about the hydraulic wipers I read so much about - they
worked great. I did have new tires and wheels, but old air bags, I thought
of making the temporary/emergency replacements - but I never did. I did
replace the inline aftermarket fuel filter - and I would recommend getting a
couple for the trip - mine was filled with rusty brown gas and stuff when I
got home.
The trip was uneventful, I made it the entire 16 miles without incident -
and the PO followed me all the way! Great folks these GMCers!
As far as tools, I do installation work all over the east coast. I carry
trim saws, cordless drills, impact wrenches and assorted hand tools. Never
had a problem in checked baggage. Just need to get to the airport early
enough to get your tools checked! Oh, they may check your junk also!
I live about 15 minutes south of I-40, about 20 miles east of Memphis. If
you need anything just give a call!
The "Black List" - don't leave home without it!
Cell - 901 570 1093 - 24 hours,
*Happy Motoring!*

No "really" tough climbs after making it past Cline's
Corner on I-40 east of Albuquerque, but when you pick
up I-44 at Oklahoma City, there's very little truly
flat land until you get east of Tulsa and then the
Ozark Mountains will drag your speed down across most
of Missouri until you get east of St Louis, MO on I-70.
Take the I-270 then I-255 bypass around the south and
southeast side of St Louis. I don't always take that
route, but I usuall have just a car or pickup when I'm
going through there over the last 35+ years!
You do NOT want to take a "new to you" coach through
downtown St Louis and E St Louis, IL! It's confusing
as all get out for a rookie!
There are two of us on the "Black List" in the OKC
area for at least some help; myself and Charles Wood;
405-642-7337/405-741-1073 and 405-225-6738/405-627-3614
respectively.
