E-350 SD Tioga RV squeaking
Hi guys,
I just bought a used 1997 Fleetwood Tioga 31' RV, its on a E-350 super duty chassis with a V10/AOD and its pushing 90,000 miles.
Driving it home, noticed some bad vibrations and squeaks. Turns out the front shocks needed changed, and after the change, the vibration is gone but the roof is still squeaking. It has the overhang over the cab for a bed, and it seems like that seam between the Econoline cab roof and the RV base is squeaking.
Any suggestions? From what little I've driven it, I can tell I'll get used to it soon, but would still like to get rid of the squeak.
Also, any suggestions for things I should look for specific to the E-350 side of it? I plan on taking it to a RV dealer for a "check-up," but am also wondering about regular maintenance things like a transmission flush, radiator flush (I noticed the bottom of the reservoir has pink fluid and it was topped off with green-does that matter at all), timing and accessory belts, etc.
TIA,
Sam
