Any 2004 Monterey Owners? Do you have a Rear or Side radiator?
« on: February 27, 2019, 04:24:33 PM »
I have been looking at all the Beaver brochures and Owners Manuals I can find - and it is not clear from the info I can find if the 2004 Monterey has a Side or Rear radiator.

According the 2004 brochure, it has an "M-Series" chassis with 8 air bags and a Cummins ISC350. But does not say if chassis is the M8R or M8S.

The 2003 Monetrey has a M8R chassis (M-series with Rear Radiator) with a Cummins ISC350, and
the 2005 Monterey has a M8S chassis (M-series with Side Radiator) with a Cat C9,

If you have/had an '04 Monterey, what radiator setup does it have?

I'm thinking it went to a side radiator in 2005 when the engine changed to the Cat C9 - so the 2004 would be a Rear radiator. Yes - No?

thanks

We owned an '04 Monterey Newport for a dozen years.  It was built in July of '03 when all of Beaver's best in Bend were on their summer holiday.  But, that's another story...

It had a side radiator.

The Cummins makes in an "oddball" in the Beaver line.  It gave it more of a Monaco flavor with a Beaver sticker on it.

Mike,
The brochure shows a side radiator and specs the Cummins engine as the only one.

Thanks. All I could find in the brochure was mention of the chassis "series" (not the full name) like most of the other brochures have.
Anyways question answered. Document completed and on its way to you.

Good afternoon,

I  have a 2004 Monterey Ventura 37 ft. It has a side radiator and a C9 CAT engine. I'm looking at the chassis lubrication guide that came with the coach and it shows the "Monterey - Cummins 2003" with a rear radiator, and the "Monterey 2004" with a side radiator.
