I just got a Ford 2003 E-450, Jayco motor home. I don't know how to get the wheel covers off. I located two "nut covers" that sound solid when I thump them, they also have little indentation marks on them that the other covers don't have. I have a "T" hanndled tool with a hexagon-like cup...

Thanks a lot! I got a good laugh out of that.

It is 26 feet. No slides. I can call the dealer tomorrow, Mon. and find out the weight. He is 5 hours drive one way. I haven't seen the unit in person yet, just the adds. Thanks for the answers so far. TS

I am looking at purchasing a 1999 Motorhome, 26' long, with a 6.5 turbo diesel. It has 19,000 miles. The chassis is likely a 1998 as the motor home is usually built on the pervious years chassis. So I'm must be looking at a 1998 6.5 Turbo diesel engine. Do you have any opinions on the...
