Thanks for the feedback Chance. This is a 2022 model with a 2022 model engine. Thor created a secondary mount for the Ballamar Altenator/Generator on the side of the engine. By doing this they needed to add a longer serpentine belt to turn the second Altenator. In addition, they swapped out the original Mopar Radiator Hose for an aftermarket hose to slip in between the engine and the belt. The clearance is less than 1/8th inch and during use there is no clearance.

In addition, thanks for the suggestion (I think from Gritz) to get a reset on the warranty to compensate for the last 4 months I have not been able to use the vehicle. Thor kinda put me between a rock and a hard place because I had a stainless steel solution suggested by a Boeing Lead Mechanic suggested to me and I procured the parts, however without Thor Engineering approving the modification I would void my warranty. That was back in April
Fix it like the Boeing guy suggests. Heck, he/she is probably more experienced with this type of “on the go” mod than Thor’s people anyway. Get back on the road. Enjoy the life!
