My ladder turns into a scaffold. Been using these for years. This will clear the hood of your Toyota?

Looking for suggestions on the best and safest way to access the center front clearance light on a 1991 Winnebago Warrior toyhouse.

?

At 230 pounds weight, standing on the hood is probably not a good idea.? :-O

?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks...

Out here next to Joshua tree I test my braking on my motorhome on roads that are paved yet have dirt and sand collected on them. That way I can see which tires lock up and it makes a lockup sound without having to panic brake which I believe is hard on the system. Pete

Hi, they make suction cup devices to hold onto glass windows when removing and installing them. Pete

I recommend these for door stop/holder:

For the screen door to the door:

Be sure to use stainless screws and a glue like E6000 to keep secure through the vibrations

Hi, I bought a pillar mount to use with two temp gauges but decided not to use on 1985 Toyota Dolphin 22re, It was molded and would not really line up. I was then thinking of just mounting the 2 in gauge cups to the existing molding.. Have a trans temp and digital engine temp gauge I may do this in future. They are currently mounted by front speaker and until I put a screw in would always pop out when I brushed by with my leg. I can see both gauges while driving so may keep where they are for now.

Hi, I would say that plastic fuse holders like this are a weak solution. I have a few that have broken due to heat and sunlight. I suggest these:

Take care, Pete

Hi, I would comment the blue clips on the wires near the ??? are likely to get corroded and cause interruptions. I always solder wires. I have heard some who say soldering isn't a guarantee. This is BS. The only place a well soldered joint will fail is if temps reach the melting point of solder or strain from vibration. Not at all likely in road vehicles. Pete

On my 1985 Toyota Dolphin 22 re I had a nightmare of issues with my brakes about 10 or 15 years ago. I got the master cylinder changed but the mechanic didn't bleed it so I was driving around with horrible brakes because I'd have to go all the way to the floor in order to stop, so eventually I learned how to bleed the master cylinder where you disconnect the two lines, front and rear lines, and then use a little tube or a salvage brake line about 9 inches long on each of the front and rear line holes on the master cylinder then you put the other end of the of the line into underneath the level of the brake fluid in the master cylinder reservoirs, then you have someone pump the brakes slowly for about a few times and that should bleed the master cylinder of all the air in it. Then you have to connect the rear and front lines to the master cylinder and then they have to bleed the brakes in the proper order probably starting from the furthest to the closest to the master cylinder on the vehicle. My brakes aren't anything great now anyway but at least they stop front and rear, on my mom's 78 Chinook Toyota the brakes were perfect right up there as soon as you start stepping on the brake they would react where mine are now for some reason I have no idea they don't start breaking till about halfway pressed. Don't know if that's an adjustment on the pedal itself or I'm still thinking about that. On the no start issue it would be helpful to know if you mean the starter motor doesn't run meaning the electricity isn't getting to the starter motor or is it a no start with the engine cranking it doesn't start that's an important thing to know to get help with it. In my opinion bypassing the neutral start switch that's on the transmission helped my problem of no start immensely and I've never had a no start ever since I bypassed it I had other things going on originally why it wouldn't start but once I put a wire from the ignition switch to the solenoid on the starter motor I haven't had any issues you might try that. Take care, Pete

Kinda of later in the conversation.?

1 There is only Master Cylinder, it has 2 sides front and rear. Your mechanic said that your original did not have any pressure to the front brakes, does the new one have front pressure? It should be checked at the master cylinder AND at one of the front brake calipers. Got one place and not the other... pinched brake line.

2. The vacuum booster is easy to check, unhook the vacuum line from the engine to the booster. Plug it off where it goes to the engine, Drive and check brakes. No change?? the booster moves up the list of bad possibilities.

I have a diagram that shows that too but part isn't for the earlier dual wheel trucks. 1988 was the last year for the dually.

Everything else I said still applies.

Factory brake shoes are still available

Let me guess. The ones you bought that didn't fit were Centric.?
