What chassis does my MH have?
I have a 2002 Itasca Sunrise 30' Ford V10. I have tried the search but did not find the answer. Thanks, Bill

Welcome to irv2 45acp.
You should have a Ford F-53 chassis.
Put in year of your coach and F-53 chassis for information in Owners Guide slot.

According to the brochure, the 30' Sunrise (30W) was built on a 18,000 GVW F53. You should be able to find that info on the manufacture's sticker somewhere up near the driver's seat too. (Of course a Workhorse chassis was available too, but you posted in the Ford section, so it must be a Ford.)

I would agree with that assessment.

Look at your vin. number at the 5th-6th and 7th letter or number if it's F53 it's an F53 Ford

Hi Bill, and Welcome to the Forum!
You will need to check for the "build date" of your Ford chassis. It could easily be a 2001 and may make a difference when you purchase parts. It is common for the chassis to be a year earlier than the coach year.
Enjoy your new motorhome!

You can go to the ford owners web site and register your VIN number. This will give you the year built and the chassis ID as well. I bought my MH last year and after I registered it I was notified of a recall that the PH did not take care of.
