I had two minor coolant leaks that were repaired but during that service they found that my transmission oil cooler was leaking. The cost for the cooler was $1100 from Spartan and another $1250 for the replacement of the cooler and repair/replacement of the coolant hoses. Last week I also removed, cleaned and polished all of my rear end lights and replaced with all LED bulbs. Now all are bright and shiny...

Well,
Just got the coach raised and blocked enough to go to work, pulling the radiator and CAC on it so I can do some engine maintenance and repair some form of coolant leak. The coach is an '04 Itasca Horizon 36GD with the CAT C-7 330HP engine. It just developed the leak two days ago. But, I'll be replacing serpentine tensioner bearings, idler bearings, water pump tensioner bearings etc. Two belts, and, with a little luck, the fan hub bearing too.

Got to be getting rid of that ugly gold tone polished brass. [emoji106]. I did exactly the same thing. I even painted the shower doors. [emoji1]

Had oil and lube service at a local independent place cause Ford doesn't have service center in the area. Repaired for the third time the left strut that holds up the bed providing access to storage.

Today I serviced the house batteries. One of the four six volt batteries really needed a lot of distilled water. The rest did not need much. I will have to recheck that one battery that was real low on water with a hydrometer and see if the battery needs to be replaced.
