With all the recent discussion about tire life what about belts & hoses, do they have a shelf life? I have had my coach for about 5 years and haven't put very many miles on it but I guess I need to replace them for reliability. The manual says belts & hoses should be replaced every two years so I am behind that schedule although I think the new replacement stock may be inferior.
The present belts look pretty good although I don't know how old they are, were on the coach when I got it. The coach came with a spare set of belts and upper & lower radiator hoses. I assume they are maybe 10 years old. What do you think, are the spares usable or too old?
