Thank you! A tour for sure😎

The inverter can handle the loads in the bus. Unfortunately not enough battery or solar on the roof to sustain more than an hour.

This video is super old, but from what I remember is that the part that’s broken in the video allows too much air into the intake. Yes, causes the engine to bog way down

This belongs to BeingBethunes. I’m doing the conversion for them. … and other things😅

@@RollinHomies oh my bad😂 city bus to camper type conversions?

@@ZEBEE0110yes, for a family of five and four dogs🙂

Interesting, I’ve never heard of a rubber roof🤔. I have seen it applied to shingles and flat roof membranes.

Thank you! Just a bit more to do on the deck and tiny bit of touch up paint😎

158d was the hottest it got in the non treated area. That was on 110d at 2pm with no clouds.

Awesome, thanks for watching! Gives me hope😄 I’m completing another bus conversion for a client now. Once I’m finished, I’ll get back after our bus. My plan is to tackle the rear axle, king pins and the taper pins. Hopefully I’ll keep you around🤘🏼😎

Thank you so much! You’re correct it is very hard to move the cameras around. I will be sharing some of the extended footage once I get it all wrapped up.

I have a 97 custom Coach I’m thinking of doing some renovations. I look to you so that I can follow your standard and do it right.

@@MrBROOKS1718right on!🤘🏼

That sounds smart😄. Looks like I’ve got some studying to do🤘🏼

Thank you! Not really a hot in the summer months but perfect for the winter months

Well thank you Ma!

No it’s only necessary to “grout” the corners, where the rebar is. But, I did throw lots of broken rock, left over concrete and even my Bosch 4 way lazer level made down one of the columns 🙂

We called a few and they weren’t available at the time. Plus, at $600 an hour, a shot of water from the hose sufficed 🙂

I only have one idler pulley and it does have a grease fitting that I grease often.

They are very heavy for sure. Only a few model 15’s had the swing hinges and I consider myself lucky😅. However, it’s been said the the hinge manifold can start leaking if it hasn’t been moved or serviced on a regular 😅

Never mind I found your video. ruclips.net/video/1HkxvduymiU/видео.html Yours is quite different from mine. I don't have a grease fitting. It is sealed. That is why I worry about it. I've owned the coach for 24 years.

I believe the hinged radiators happened in late ‘89 and newer. Most of the older buses were mounted in 😔

Sadly, there are people out there who are still using double sided 3m tape😕

Me too🙂. There’s 5 35’ eagles out there. One for sale on Craigslist for $41k with a 6v92 in it. I personally wouldn’t pay that for it because I’d have to do a complete remodel and I don’t care for a giant diesel generator in the bay.

Thanks. The power draw really is a wash, but the space comparison isn’t… for the money spent. I’ve heard people argue that all of the cold air falls out of an upright when you open the door. Makes me giggle. It’s not the air that keeps things cool, it’s the cooled things in the cooler… which you have to take out of a floor cooler to get to other things. 😄

@@RollinHomies right so that theories also a wash lol. I'd rather the space. And ease of access. Less time door spent open. I just ordered the magic chef 7.4. Black

It rated lower on the power consumption than the visaani. The home depot compare function shows all the specs. It's on energy stars website too

… and killing things is just so invasive 😄 Ya this was my first video. Come a ways sense then. Haven’t made to many because the work it takes with zero reward and then constant “critiquing” from viewers. Thanks 🤘🏼

Apples to oranges 😄

You’ll know for sure if it’s the manifold valve if you check it like i did in the video. Honestly I sold the gti about 7 years ago 🙂

Scales are only needed when adjusting the bogey wheels. there is a very technical way to do this. Long story short, my bus was parked on ramps for too long. Knowing that the aggressive incline was at fault for front being lower, I made the adjustments to bring it back up and level.

I referenced from the trim. Another way is to measure from the bottom edge of the bus to the ground. 13-14 inches is the height you’re looking for.

Thanks for watching! Was definitely a challenge for my first time. I was beyond excited for the results and just overall felt a great sense of accomplishment🤘🏼

My eagle was originally a seated coach when we purchased it. Luckily, it still have the driver’s service manual and all original docs in it. You can purchase new through Phoenix Coach. The other manual to have would be a parts book. Not as many floating around, but fortunately there’s a handful of people that still hoard eagle parts for resale 🙂

😂 mine too. Glad I now have another feather in my cap🤘🏼

Works well. More nooks and crannies to clean now 🙂

Scott’s channel has helped me tremendously in the past few years. And I agree on the shotty workmanship. As long as I’m able I will try to always to the work. I’m hanks for watching!🤘🏼

Gotta love HF for selling tools that get the job done. Thanks for watching 🤘🏼

Many things I’d do differently if I were to do it again😅. Thanks for watching

I didn’t feel good about it. I thought that same thing as walked by two trailer tires laying in the ditch next to where we were parked. The whole situation was very unexpected and I wiped up what I could.

Thank you, but I’m not in the market. 🙂

New drums for eagles are like “unobtainium”🥲😉. But the drums were still within spec for inner diameter. Walls were still straight too.

As I was speaking with other eagle owners, I was told that adjustment to the bogies does nothing for height and only adds assistance for brakes. Idk though, as my bus now sits just under 48” all the way around. There is a proper procedure for adjusting the suspension and I did not follow it. I have my reasons and is why I adjusted the front first earlier this year. Bus was parked in a position that compressed the front torsions to the point that they stayed at that height. I raised the front back to level at 47” and that was allowing the bogies to lockup under hard braking. Common sense told me I needed to add down force to make bogies. Just drove 1500 miles from Tulsa to St Cloud with zero issues.

There is a proper procedure to follow when doing this. I didn’t follow it but my main objective was to get the front end up because my bus was nose diving in corners and when braking. Thanks for watching 😃

These are window sash cam locks. Home Depot will have them. I placed it down low to be more inconspicuous 🙂

Thank you…. They are very intimidating 😄

It can be done🙂.

@@RollinHomies how much do you charge

How much do you charge to give one

300k is pretty good for an Eagle. Engine and drivetrain were reman’d in ‘09 but only have 86k on them… lots life life👌🏼. As for the rest of things, you can see where I’m at 😄 Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! We use State Farm and I believe they are starting become the norm for most. Progressive is a definite no go,so ovoid them. We two policies on our bus. One is for a no commercial bus and the other is for the personal items inside. Best of luck !

Me too😄. It was messy project for sure and a good cleaning was definitely needed🤘🏼

Thank you!

Id love a torch! We’re usually on the road, so the space would be too limited for that. However, I do have a 4” angle grinder and a solder torch😄. I also picked up an pneumatic hammer to help with the kingpins Thanks for the comment✌🏼

Appreciate that. Always trying to share the wealth😉✌🏼

Thank you! Always a work in progress 😄

The previous installer over torqued the bolts/nuts for the mounting brackets to the panels. They used self-locking flanged nuts to join them. The locking edges created perforated edges in the panel’s aluminum … basically created dotted lines for the aluminum to tear along. And yes, vibration from just six months of traveling about 20k miles aiding in the failure of the aluminum.

Personally, taking the substrate to bare metal for adhesion is best. Using butyl or double sided permanent 3m tape will work for a glue/gasket in between metals … which you would also want if joining two types of metals together (corrosion). Then use self tap metal roof screws for securing. I’d be careful when using an impact driver because you cannot feel the screw tightening down and you could easily tear through the metal. I will add that this would be for a metal roof like a bus application. Rv roof would change materials used slightly, but be almost the same process. Hope that helps✌🏼

@@RollinHomies By bare metal, you mean sand it down to get a cleaner bare metal? Totally makes sense, I know some people, especially for those RV roofs, are hesitant to make holes! Cheers!
