After countless hours of preperation for our family trip to Colorado we made it about 30 miles and the engine developed a nasty knock. My dad and brother brought us our Yukon which we continued on with and dad got our coach towed back. My kids were disapointed but got over it quick.
My brother is a mechanic so we are planning on doing the rebuild ourselves. We pulled the tranny last night and hope to have the motor out tonight.
I am not sure if this is a dumb question but I am wondering if this is standard rebuild or if anyone has any pitfalls or potential problems to avoid. Or any performance upgrades that your happy with. Any info would be much appreciated.
Here's a list of things that I did to our coach this spring leading up to our trip and many thanks to all of the suppliers that helped me through these projects.
- Honda seats
- New toilet
- Rebuilt drive axles
- Jim k's phase II 6 wheel disk brake kit
- Rebuilt onan control board
- 1 rear spindle
- A arm bushings
- Driver and passenger window seals
- Stainless air tank and new pressure switch
- New rear ride height control valves
- Compressor rebuild
- Front wheel bearings
Thanks for all your Help
