Yesterday dropped the axle on my Jayco 1206 popup as it was bent. Had a machine shop straighten it and I reinstalled it. Also installed new weather stripping on the roof as I had a minor leak. Rained last night and we're bone dry today Today, reattached a broken wire lift arm wire. Now trouble shooting the power lift motor which doesn't work.

I think the Dometic 310 is a direct replacement for the Style 2 Thetford toilet.

Knock on wood I haven't had a lot of problems with my Style 2 toilet in 7 years but I don't full time. My foot flush wasn't snapping back and had to be manually closed by the lever with my foot. So instead of replacing the ball etc I ordered one of these and so far all is good. Seems like a brand new toilet but if it fails I'm going with the Dometic 310.

Where do you look to see what toilet you currently have. Is it printed on the toilet somewhere?

In prep for winter, removed anything that could freeze, batteries from the pantry puck lights, put the tire covers on, bypassed the WH, and washed the bug splat off the front.
Noticed the sewer cap dangling...the ears had broken off it. Put a new spare cap on it.
Next is embalming and the cover.

You'll have to do some research first. Mine had a brochure in the manuals I received from the dealer. If it's got a porcelain top and plastic bottom it's likely a Thetford Style 2 toilet. If it's all plastic it's anybody's guess.

Grabbed her from storage and parked her in front of the sticks & bricks. Turned fridge on...was going to air up all the tires, but they’re all at 103 psi.

Magnolia Tom schooled me on how to change my wheel bearings and brakes on my 377 and he can attest to the fact I am not very handy. But I rolled up my sleeves and listened to everything he said. Good thing we did because we spotted only 3 brakes connected to power and this brake attached had zero pad on one side. Also had to change my lugnuts from those cheap ones with the caps and replace my 50amp power inlet as I broke the door off it [emoji35].
Thanks again Tom, appreciate the help and teaching.!!

My pleasure Mark! You did most of the work so don’t give me too much credit. You’re much more capable than you claim to be.

Cleaned everything out. Wiped down interior and winterized it. Final exterior wash of the season next week before we tow it to the storage barn. Already looking forward to next season.

Laced it with dryer sheets, blew out the water lines, embalmed it, put in the dri-z-air, pulled the battery, swept the roof, lowered the radio antenna and covered her up for the long winters nap!

Sad Day
Had to winterize it. Temps forecast to be below 32* but if it warms up, I'll take another trip as it's simple and cheap to re-winterize.
