Re: [Diesel-RVs] Re: Air leveling and pwr cord retractor

Ron,
The Glendinning system is a cord coil in a cylinder type system that sits on its end. The cord reel system that is a lot less expensive has to be mounted in a space that allows access to hand help the cord as it winds onto the reel. If not, the cord will jamb. Chuck B

The coach has a compartment in the left rear of the coach where the
present power cord receptacle is. I think the glendinning assy is
what Monaco installed in their factory setups. Since that woud use
existing unused space it woud be better to put the unit in that
compartment than use other space such as the utility compartment
where the inverter etc are. To those who have had aftermarket units
installed, what price range should I expect?
Looks like I'll see what Monaco says about the air leveling and then
decide what I'm gonna do. I certainly wouldn't want to spend big
bucks then have a second rate system.
Thanks, Ron
