As I stated, mine had severe wear. I don't know how long it would have continued to work, but am glad I caught it before it stripped. The newly wet area does circulate fluid back into the transmission so I was very meticulous in cleaning the pump input shaft and the cavity before reassembly. I plan to have the tranny filters changed after a few hundred miles in case any contamination was introduced. I have the same engine and transmission that you have David. Mine is an inspire 07 with 33000 mi. I strongly suggest you know before you go. Jim

From what I have learned from my research, almost all coaches before 2010 have dry PTOs....I was told just to have the Dry PTO serviced every 18 months and them forget it....

I fully understand what you are saying, and agree. That said, when I took my installed PTO p/n to the Chelsea rep., in Seattle, he told me not to worry as mine was a heavy (er) duty model. He gave me a packet of grease and said that after 8,000 miles, to apply the grease to the splines, and thereafter, to repeat and not worry. I always take what someone says with a grain of salt, until they earn my confidence, so I read all of these emails about the issue and try to gain both respect for the issue, as well as knowledge.

Or no transmission PTO at all. I think that all coaches built before 2004 have the engine driven hydraulic pump. Thus, no PTO issues at all. The change to transmission driven PTOs occurred sometime in 2004.

Turns out my 2007 CC Tribute 260 has a rear radiator and, therefore, DOES NOT have a PTO. Worried for nothing.

If you have a question as to your coach needing a PTO wet kit, contact John Davis and he will explain how to tell if your specific coach needs one. I bought my wet kit from him (probably the best price anywhere) and he gave me excellent directions for installing it. Most good auto mechanics can do it with his written instructions. His knowledge and instructions make him the very best source for purchasing the kit (if you need it) and information.
