Bus Supports / Stands

[Jon Wehrenberg]

Dale,

Go ahead to see what happens. I think the guys that work on their coaches for the most part are here on POG, but we can see if there is interest. I think I will put the order in right after Christmas so use that as a cut-off date.

Price is still too cheap...Put me down for two complete sets...45xl white in color please unless you decide to go with red. George.

It sure was nice to see so many "take" a "stand" on Jon's "posts".

In their "work" they have "risen" to the "common" cause of "elevating" their coaches to a "uniform height" in the work area.

POGites are bonding

Jim....when it comes to puns, Loc has us all beat. I won't even try to be a smart ass here because he has an unending supply.

I would be willing to take a stand on this issue, but don't have the meddle to do so. It would require the height of passion and raise the level of posting on this site to an even level. Furthermore, we need to have a steady and firm footing in our discussions.

That should support you in your efforts without raising the bar of dialogue on this forum too high.

Instead of trying to out pun the punster, should you not be splitting wood?

There is a family in ME freezing because of you.

Here is the tally as I understand it for stands.

Roger, Jim C, Peter VS (4 or 6), Brian E., Kim, Jim K., Ted De, Ray D. Miles, Hector, Greg, George C (2 sets), Gary D., Jim S, Bob 00, Rich B.

As of now it appears a set should be 14.5" for the front, and 13.5" for the rear with shims totalling .250" per stand to compensate for uneven floors or manufacturing variations in the shells. I am awaiting a concensus on XLII heights.

To Peter...I support my coach per the Prevost manual at the front and rear. They do not call for six supports.

Gary D, they can be supplied raw.

Greg, I don't know their capacity. They are of 3/16 wall 4 X 4 steel tubing. Peter, any idea? I think on my coach the rear supports will be carrying 17,000 pounds each.

to all...the colors will either be black, gray or white unless the company can time coating with a run of another preferred color. I posed the question to see if any color is possible. Special colors will be big bucks, so I suggest we see if there is a concensus on the three color choices, and meantime I will see if the company is running red or some other bright color such as yellow that this run can piggy back on.

To keep the costs down the run needs to be a single color.
