One of the things that I do not know is if the wide body Revcons have a different centerline widths. Maybe Eric can measure his, as I pretty sure he has stock...
Dave, Thanks for the use of your experience. My book says the Budd wheels had 2.71in. offset. I'll have to get to the paperwork for the new wheels and...
Lyle; I am probably just a bit late on answering this one. For all practical purposes everything in the Olds powered Slantnose (1978) is the same except...
I have installed all AutoMeter Sport Comp. gages in the coach but am not satisfied with the tach and speedo. They simply will not settle down. There is a...
... ==================== Stan--- Can auto-meter give you specs on changing the "sample rate" of their instruments? Slowing that "feature" down will stabilize...
Eddie, Thanks, I'll give them a call and see what I can find out. They did have me put a resister in the lead to the tach once but that just cut the rpm in...
Stan, Just to confirm are these the 3 3/8" gauges with analog pointers or digital gauges with LED numbers? I'm running a Sport Comp digital (red pointer...
Eric, My tach and speedo are 3 3/8 digital. Red LED readouts. No pointers. and they are sport comp models. I installed all new wiring and speed sensor. ...
I would bet that there is a noise problem, not a data rate problem. I would try making sure you have good grounds, use shielded cable to feed the gauges, and...
Dave, I couldn't believe the resistor either. I have used all shielded wire. I know the grounds are good and the plug wires have 700 miles on them. Course...
Then I would suspect a noise filter/suppressor on the 12 volt wire. it may be as simple as filtering out the alternator noise. If you get one from Radio Shack,...
I put Dunlop ATV tires on the rears-- 33x16.5x12.5. Stock is x9.5, so any thing wider will help rear sway-- and x12.5 is the widest you can put on there. In...
Where did you find Dunlop ATV 33-16.5 x 12.5 tires? I am in SoCal. We need to replace the fronts and rears after our trip. Thom ... From: ffreeloader...
I bought a flatnose in Indiana Im not going to be able to use it now, needs rediator soldered and can be driven home a resonable distance, i was going to drive...
Lyle: I sent you an e-mail a couple of days ago and wonder if it got lost in space or if you are out actually enjoying your rig! Marcus [Non-text portions of...
... Hi Heather what year are you looking for? I do have a set of rebuilt drive axles for a toro front end on the flat nose Revcons that I was saving fora...
Have a set of rebuilt drive axles for a flat nose with toronado front end that are taking up space and no longer have a vehicle they will fit. Would like to...
WE HAD OUR RADIATOR IN OUR '79 RELINED, ALONG WITH A ZILLION OTHER THINGS...IT IS ALMOST DONE AT THE SHOP...EXCEPT I WILL DO THE INTERIOR AND AWNING...STILL...
I replaced the tires on my '72 flat-nose back in '03 with the original bias-ply tire sizes. The rig sits unused more than I'd like, but I've found the issue of...
Lyle: So much for my prosaic letter....! . In brief, I need shocks and Dave was impressed with our ride. Where did you get yours? P/N? $? Also, Dave mentioned...
Marcus, when are you planning to go to Yosemite? We are planning a jaunt there and may want to coordinate it, so as to meet another Revcon owner! Also, we...
Wes, we are looking right now for replacements for our front tires. Putting a little extra air in really wears out the middle tread (I knew that, but didn't...
sorry for butting into the conv. but Firestone, Transforce, Radials seem to be working pretty well, bought mine locally but they sell them at Tirerack.com...
Thom: 1) We have reservations for the first Sat. in October (4th?) in the overflow campsite, then 3 nights in the Upper Pines campgrounds (#209), heading home...
Thom: 35 years ago, (ouch - THAT long ago!) we used age our racing bicycle tires 6-12 months to "cure" the rubber so it would not wear out so fast. For those...
Heck, it's not so bad - why 35 years ago, our coach was just getting broken-in! Sounds like you were having a good old time riding that bike. I tried a...
Marcus, we'll see if we can swing it to be there around the 4th of next month. That would be a fun thing to 'amaze the locals' with a few Revcons. It was fun...
