Thought I would r&r these per Wolfe's advice. Been lots of posts so I thought I would see where is the best place to buy these now.
Happy New Year and thanks
Encantotom for the plungers and stuff if he has any available. It's one kit per axle (so 2 kits for a 2-axle coach and 3 for a tag axle coach). You cannot (readily) source the plungers/seats elsewhere. The o-rings you can (Ace Hardware), but why bother when Tom includes everything and at a great price?

You can also buy just the o-ring kits from HWH, but for much less $ there is info on the forum on the o-ring numbers/sizes (HWH doesn't make o-rings themselves).
Like Michelle says, just send Tom a personal message (PM). Tell him how many kits you need. He will respond with information on availability, the estimated waiting time if he doesn't have any kits in stock, and current price.

For the newer Forum members who might not be familiar with Tom's modest RV barn, see the post linked below:

I contacted Tom a couple days ago. He said he has a batch coming in "next week or so." Currently $125 for one and $240 for two shipping included.
Can you post the contact info for Tom, I would like to get some also
Thanks, Windwalker
Send him a private message via the board Encantotom (https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?action=profile;u=4660)
He will send you his direct email address.
Beautiful garage! I am totally jealous. I live on a ridge 300 ft up that is only 60' wide. So I had to limit myself to 24x60. One side is for mrs fitz, it's tight
Think #6 got misposted or over my head.
Refers back to my Reply #2 where I included a link to a post talking about Tom's RV barn.
Yep. Got Tom's last 2 in this shipment.
Thanks for the tips
Sorry,
I wondered off and saw his shop
I've had a leaking Nason pressure switch on one of our six packs. This is the SM-2B-20F part number. I found a local distributor and should have a confirmed price early next week and will post back details. They mis-heard me over the phone and quoted $32 for a 50F with a 3 week lead time. I expect it will be the same price for the 20F. I will buy spares and also the 85R pressure switch as well.
Definitely interested in what you find and details on your source. I booked marked other posts for a Honeywell alternate for the 85psi switch as I understood Nason ones are difficult to find.
As FYI, below is the "secret decoder ring" for the Nason part number.
1. Where is the 20psi switch used on the 2004 U295? I thought Foretravel used 10psi switches on all of the front 6-packs.
2. Here is what I found last time I looked. I bought the adjustable 85psi switch from Motor Home Renovations, but have not yet needed to use it.
6 pack rebuild (https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?topic=35558.msg333157#msg333157)
Here is a picture of the 3 pressure switches on one of my six packs. I don't know when HWH switched from the 10psi to the 20psi switch. One of my 20 psi switches is leaking between the brass portion and the black plastic portion. Its possible that some sealant might have stopped the leak but I decided to just order a replacement and a spare of each type.
The supplier is Comoso.com (they are also a Parker distributor)
$34.75 per switch with a 2-3 week lead time.
Interesting. I assume this is the front 6-pack? If so, I wonder what is the purpose of the third pressure switch. Your leveling system must operate differently than the earlier model coaches.
