You are welcome!

Traded it about 2 years ago. The upgrades helped a lot. Would/have done them again on current coach. Besdt single thing was the addition of the rear track bar. If it fits what you want, a 22K chassis is much better than the 18K chassis.

@@modularmania2012 what do you mean 22k vs 18k chassis? Is that the weight?

Yes, my 30 foot ACE was on an 18,000 lb chassis and my 36 foot Miramar is on a 22,000 lb chassis. Both are F53 Ford. These are the GVWR of the two coaches (Gross vehicle weight rating). the 18k has 19.5 inch tires and the 22K has 22.5 inch plus heavier suspension/axles. The 22 k is usually on coaches over 30 foot.

Yep, it is hard to get it open. You have to pull toward the drivers side, away from the box and slightly forward. At least that is how I got it open. Matbe an easier way.

Thank you for watching

Yes, license plate lights from Amazon. Installed one on each exterior step, two at the switches near the entry door and one in the hall bath wall. I have the same "glare" issue reading dash display in daytime. Not sure if additional light would help that issue, maybe some type of hood to shield the display. I rely on the Garmin RV 890 on the dash for speed and distance. I think if you turn off the headlights, in the daytime, the display brightness is increased, helps some. Maybe there is a way to "trick" the display to max brightness, probably the voltage sent to the display.

Thank you, we really like this coach.

You’re welcome

Yep, that would be a good idea.

I can't say for sure as I did the track bar and CHF at the same time. On IRV2.com many say the CHF alone helps a lot. Doesn't cost anything but your labor. You can always undo it if you want. Some claim you should use longer arms to keep the angle stock, others say the CHF makes pot holes and road seams more jarring.

You might want to watch this video also: th-cam.com/video/ufaxWsBIbEw/w-d-xo.html I used Dewalt drill/driver, table saw (could use skill saw), utility knife, and a paint brush.

Hi MX2 Bob, where can i buy thé stainless steel pièce ? Tks

Part #?

@@juanolea1611 I didn't give it a part number, as it's the only one on the market, and I only make this kit.

@@juanolea1611 It only fits the Trimark handle like the one pictured in this video.

I was lucky to be inside the coach when it broke. Removed the two mounting screws on the inside and removed the lock. Some people were able to crawl in an unlocked window. You may be able to pull the lever that opens the door and pound on the door near the edge where the bolt is. Jiggle the door as you pound, may work the broken end out of the strike on the jamb. May have to cut the lock out. May be able to work a stiff wire or thin metal strip under the lip of the door and work the bolt out of the strike.

James Ray You may be able to open the drivers side or passengers side window even if locked. Some have posted that you can open by pushing in on the slider portion at the lock and pulling out on the fixed side. They post that you can get enough movement to move the sliding side past the lock catch.

Maybe. Putting some foam rubber on top of the radio may help. There is a stud on the back of the radio. There is a tab that sticks down from the dash with a hole in it to receive the stud when the radio is installed. It is not a tight fit so it can rattle when driving. Also possible that the stud missed the hole when the radio was installed. If that happened you would not know it by looking at the radio from the front. Tab could also be bent. You should be able to reach up from the bottom and feel along the back of the radio to tell if the stud is in the tab.

@@modularmania2012 Thanks for that info. I will be doing some hacking around in there after removing the radio. Appreciate your reply and good job on the vids that you do. Travel safely.

@@modularmania2012 Got the radio out...no problem other than the power cable was not long enough to get the radio out without pulling the cable out. No problem though. Found that the screw stub on the back that goes into the tab connected to the dash was threaded for something like a bolt that wasn't there. Got one, a wing nut...metric at Lowes and tightened it up. Hoping that works....doing a bump test soon. Thanks for your email and your video on this project.

@@golfbum18 Lucky yours was threaded. Mine was smooth. If the noise was the radio the nut should solve the problem.

They're making headway LOL...now if they could just find those wingnuts. Thanks again.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that i checked all those fuses before finding the correct one in the engine compartment. None of them are easy to get to.

@@modularmania2012 that is a fact!. I was trying to use the manual to diagnose a blown fuse and none of the inside boxes matched the manual. Maybe the one you found did but the fuse I blew was in the battery compartment and is the same fuse that powers the radio

Maybe, could be 2 cent.

It's how they move product nowadays. Make it cheap and sell more. Same with appliances today.

Some, most minor. Have never taken it to a dealer or shop for repair. Had the alignment checked once at a Ford truck shop. IRV2.com is a good website for info on rv's and the ACE29.3 in particular. Here is the address to a 29.3 thread on ITV2.com: www.irv2.com/forums/f121/ace-29-3-a-223543.htm Here is the address to a partial index of the above thread: www.irv2.com/forums/f121/ace-29-3-a-223543-98.html#post3412018 Sorry for taking so long to respond. I must have missed your comment when first posted.

If I did it again I would probably cut the paneling out of the end of the overhead cabinet and the base cabinet where they meet the bath wall. Run the wire, then overlay the cut out panels.

Yes would have been better. Posted this video in response to a request posted on IRV2.com. Unfortunately the work was already complete at that time. Thanks you for the comment.

Sorry I missed your comment. So a late thank you.

Thanks for the post tmcblane. SusanD posted a question on IRV2.com regarding drain points. I had better post a note to her about the outside kitchen. A good source of info for the ACE 29.3 is on IRV2.com. www.irv2.com/forums/f121/ace-29-3-a-223543.html There is a thread index on page 98.

Sorry Deb, missed your comment a year ago. So a belated thank you. Hope you are enjoying your RV.

Thanks, we used it a lot.
