We just purchased a 33' Fleetwood Southwind Class A, and it came with basically no manuals.
Can't seem to find the plate/sheet for GVWR's, etc.
Does anyone here have a late 80's or early 90's Southwind so I can pick your brain ????

If those would be applicable to 89 southwind, we'd really like to see them. Would you be interested in making copies, or seeling the manual outright?
Thanks for your response!

Our 87 Bounder is on a John Deere chassis,read some where else through a google search that John Deere and Osh Kosh are under the Freightliner company. So you can still contact them for info on these older chassis/motorhomes then? Wonder if they still do parts for them too. Would definitely come in handy.

On my 34 ft'er the gvwr:15,000 lbs
uvw:11,800 lbs
carrying capacity:3200 lbs
minus fuel (78 gals.= 468 lbs), leaves 2732 lbs for passengers and gear.
My fresh water tank holds 68 gals., but i only travel with about 10-15 gals. Mine has a tow rating of 5000 lbs.

Ours is on the Chevy chassis as well.

We haven't weighed the rig yet- now that the snow is falling in earnest we may leave it till the spring.
