Consider getting all the routine maintenance caught up. Whatever is needed (even do some a bit early). At least these tasks will be out of your thought process for a while.

If you have Hydro Hot system have Spartan check the engine/hydro hot to and from hoses. Mine were extremely soft and ruptured causing a loss of coolant and several hours roadside waiting, Bussman switch recall, have switch/harness verified to be correct, check all tires for any unusual wear patterns and if possible a 6 point weigh.

Chris the head service writer is awesome and he knows his stuff. Besides asking us, I strongly suggest asking Chris what he recommends and take his advice.

I had Gary as my technician and he really cares about the work. He wants to make sure you are happy.

By the way, before signing off they always go on a test drive with you.

Hi! Thanks for the tips. We get worked on Fri. They are doing a complete fan upgrade again. It was done in Feb and updated at Newmar in June. Now they tell me they have all new parts again. Details to follow. Paul

Paul, I saw one at Newmar before I left....even BIGGER parts now, in order to deflect some of that torque I believe...

Unless there's a Charlotte,FLORIDA I ain't going to Spartan this trip either...
