Title: Monterey Air Ports
Post by: Richard Davis on October 15, 2019, 05:25:50 PM

I have a 2006 Monterey Ventura IV.  I know there are air line connections in the rear bay on the passenger side.  What I would like to know is if there is an air inlet port up front somewhere to allow the suspension to be aired up from an external source?  Thanks.

Our '04 only had air ports in the back.  If a tow truck (or other source of air) was needed, a hose has to be strung to the back.

There is no port up front, unfortunately. 

As Bill notes, a tow truck driver has to string a line, like over/around the curbside mirror and looped back and maybe around the roof ladder, and under the coach to the port.  Been there, done that in 2007.  The idea is to keep the air brakes released during towing. 

Don’t know why Monaco didn’t put a port up by the genset like many if not most other coaches.
