changing belts and hoses

[Curt Sprenger]

Does your coach have the swing out radiator? Makes the job a lot easier. Might be a good time to fabricate your own swing radiator. Several procedures and pictures can be found on the forum.

It looks like I will need to be replacing some belts on my 77FC35 fairly soon.

All are still working, but getting a bit loose.

Do I understand correctly that getting to the belts on the 77FC35 involves removing the bumper, front panel and radiator ?


If it's going to be a big job like that, I presume I will want to replace all belts and any hoses in that area while I have the radiator off.

Can anyone who has done this task offer me some clues?  If I were to pay someone to do it, can anyone estimate what I should expect it to cost?
