Re: 3126B Radiator Hoses

Brett & Bill, Thanks for the comments. Am I to assume the hoses run down the frame rail, through the basement might be anchored to the frame rail to hold in place, so near impossible to replace? Only the hose in the engine compartment and forward of the basement is removable to replace? Is the h...

Re: 3126B Radiator Hoses

Thanks for the comment, Bob. My 3126B has two regulators. Already have them, the CAT ELC, distilled water, new 7 lb pressure cap for the surge tank. Trying to gather everything I need, including the new clamps (8 of them?) so it gets done right. Also have the coolant flush (CAT). Looking at possibly...

Re: 3126B Radiator Hoses

Thanks for the responses, Duane and Bob. Amazon has the 2" i.d. Gates green stripe hose in a straight 3 foot length (Gates #24232) . Are both upper and lower hose i.d. 2", and would a 3 foot length be sufficient for the job?

3126B Radiator Hoses

Anyone know part numbers for the radiator hoses for a CAT 3126B in a Sahara? Suspect mine are original to the coach and would like to replace soon when I flush and refill with new CAT ELC.

Re: Antifreeze/coolant reservoir leak

John,
The link you list for the aluminum $231 tank doesn't give me the opportunity to get any information except a photo. Is it the same size as the original Ford tank? How do you order it? Telephone only?

Re: Looking for info on an SMC Slide where support beams go through Frame rail

This may not be helpful, but my 1998 Sahara slide uses the hydraulic leveling pump (RVA) to power a motor engaged by gears to the two rails, powering the slide both in and out. It is on a Magnum chassis built by SMC. I believe the slide mechanism was designed jointly by SMC and RVA. Both no longer e...
