Elandan in Texas

Hi all, I am a first time RV owner and just purchased a 85 Elandan 31 footer (65k miles) in great shape. Just finished going over everything...tune up, belts,all fluids changed to synthetics(no leaks). I am very pleased to have found this forum as it has a lot of info I was looking for. The only thing that has me stumped is finding window screens for this model(WCP31RT). I have 3 of the original 10 and neither the dealer nor Winnebago seems to be any help. If anyone knows where to look, message me please. The person that sold this RV to me left two boxes full of new parts and spare parts and upgrades. I paid $4000 for this RV and I think I got a nice unit. Only problem driving it is that it tends to "wander" on the road(loose steering and I have not started on the suspension yet. thinking it needs bushings and shocks and maybe bearing adjustment.
Looking forward to my first outing with this rig and hoping to meet other Elandan owners or any RVers to "pick their brains" and learn more before I go full time RVing.
Cheers! Cappy vrooom vroooom!

Time maybe to weight it so you can set the tire pressures correctly, start with the inexpensive things first.

Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang here!

Congrats on the new rig! Hope you enjoy the forum!

I would suggest that you post questions over in the appropriate areas of the forum for best results. Not many folks hang out here in the Welcome area.

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!
