Hey Jim:

Earlier this month you talked about vacuum resevoir tanks on your
daily pros site. I would like to put this setup on my coach - but
can't find anything on your site.

Can you tell me what I need to re-create the setup you described ?

Thanks - Chip

Gene & others,
You are right, it really comes down to why you wanna do it. The
right answer is "because I want to". If you ask is it an economical
move I would tell you to run away. If it is to get more room in your
coach I would say pack lighter. If it's to have something no one else
has be prepared to pay to have it.
We mounted the entry door in the slide-- not even the Prevost boys
are that nutty! The coach ended up being 11' wide "Ewak hut" fully
deployed, it was cool but you had to be a short guy to feel
comfortable which the guy we built it for was. Now the coach is in
Kentucky and the new owner is excited to "have" something like that
so I would say he is a good fit for it.
If you guys are just batting the idea around for fun, I would say
thats the best place to keep it. Been there, done that, have the
scars to prove it!
Cost--- if you have to ask, trust me it will cost too much! Manny
told me that after finishing his, I think I brought that question to
a new level!

one thing
everyone I have talked to that has done slide-outs on a GMC, say, I
WOULD
NOT DO IT AGAIN.
Manny does anything (because he can;>)
and JimB said it was tough ( he did two on one coach)
the slide out the back,guy, still has leaks, n, stuff
I don't want to speak for them, so you can ask them, but I don't
think any
will recommend doing a slide-out with out a lot of thought about the
effort
required, chassis modifications, drive motors, leaks, covers, etc.
good luck, but this is a big deal
