Now for two simple modifications

We just got our Quantum RS26 back from the dealer after fixing a few items that reared their ugly heads on our trip to Cody, WY and back. The leaking rear bin is now supposedly weather proof and the trim along the front edge of the house has been secured. The unit has been winterized and has been parked with the proper amount of Stabil in the full gas tank.

However, I want to finish up a few minor items and would like your collective advice.

a. I need a hood mounted bug deflector. Which one is best?

b. I want a bullet proof set of valve stem extenders that will not leak and makes filling the tires a lot easier. The current J extenders are crap.

So, what do you folks recommend?

Keith

Check out dually valves at Yourtireshopsupply.com (http://yourtireshopsupply.com/catego...rd-dodge-class). Not especially cheap and require having a local tire shop dismount and remount your tires. But they are simple and bulletproof. Mine ran me $210 installed which seems a lot but seems totally worth it. Get a TPMS system too. Can’t help with the bug deflector. Maybe only drive in the winter?!

Thanks for this info!
I've added a TPMS system to my Christmas Wish-List also.

Bug Problem Solved

Received my Auto Ventshade 25016 Bugflector II Hood Shield (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0013LS8X6?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf) as recommended to me on the Ford RV Forum. Installed in less than an hour. Fit perfectly. VERY happy. Thanks.
