Title: Rubber Hinges for a 4106?
Post by: Gary Hatt - Publisher BCM on December 23, 2019, 03:26:13 PM
Someone just asked me where they can get replacement Rubber Hinges for her 4106.  Where is everyone getting these?  Thanks in advance.  BTW, she lives in Colorado Springs.

IBP in FL has better hinges unless Luke has changed supplier

I think someone mentioned recently that Luke gets them from someone else now.

I got a set from Luke recently, only put one on so far but the material seems good to me.  Ream the channels with a .22 brush and dust the rubber in talcum powder to make installation a breeze.

  Talcum powder will give your 06 cancer,, use Dawn dish soap instead ..>>>Dan

Disagree with talcum powder doing harm - at least to our 4104. We've been using it for 4 decades on our coach w/o issue. It works great. IMHO

It is the GM manual tells you to use talcum powder Dawn is questionable on rubber people pay the price when they use it on the liner seals on the 92 series

When the Lawyers find out GM recommended it, look out. Mega lawsuits.
