This group provides a forum for owners and operators of diesel powered motorhomes and 5th wheel tractors to discuss mechanical issues, regulatory issues (US, Canada), ownership, insurance, campground accommodations, trip reports/suggestions, and other topics relevant to large RVs and the people who drive them.
Well, the sound was definitely coming from where the track rod connects
to the lower control arm. Of course, the car doesn't make the noise
anymore... I checked and the bolt isn't loose or anything, so I guess
I'll just see if it comes back...

Hey is there any chance that the stuck antenna is stopping the radio from working, I have another antenna is it worth swapping. How do you get the boot (trunk to you yanks) liner out of the way without damaging it?

Chip, It's not all sweetness and light, despite how Nate makes it sound. Even though he has always TRIED to set a good example, he failed with his son. His son drives a GMC diesel pick-up, instead of something sensible, like a Unimog. Tom In a message dated 7/22/2011 5:24:52 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, czulli@gmail.com writes: Nate,
You know, sometimes I just hate to read your post. Most of what you write about makes it all seem so easy and simple. But not for me. I frequently take months in search of a leak and when I take things off of my doors or trunk I almost never get them back together without breaking something else.
So I end up feeling stupid and clueless trying to leap off tall buildings in a single bound, leaps that you make every day with ease.
I am glad you have the feelings of accomplishment almost every day. But me....if I can get tree sap off my hood I've had a good turn of events.
Please post some of your failures, it might bring me hope.

1. Wandered the Monrovia PAP today. Nothing exciting except walking by the Port a Potties twice while they were unloading them (gag).
2. Dawned on me (a special revelation) as I watched Kent B's video of bad axles that my Very Loud "whang, bang, clang" noise heard only after going up 6% grades for long period of time is probably bad CV joints with play in the joint. Because it never happens on flat land, I tend to forget about it once I am home. I am going to put new half shaft axles on any way, so will look at the old ones and see if their is some damage that could lead to such a thing.

The Internet is a wonderful thing. The old radio is out.
