I had one problem on my trip to Patterson. My dash air quit on me. Luckily, the weather turned cool for the return trip so AC was not needed.

I believe the front shaft seal needs replacing. I have the compressor out and the clutch plate and hub assembly removed. I do not have a seal seat or seal removal tool so was wondering if there were any techniques on how to remove and replace the seat and seal? Thanks for any advice.

Randy, I feel your pain. Very Happy

We did not need air coming out of there, did we. Saturday was a nice day to see the swamps. We came up the back road to Baton Rouge. I need to run my coach around town, when it stops raining, to check my compressor that Ken and I put on for leaks.
