coach heights - encantotom - 03-17-2013

hi all,

i thought i would give the measurements of my 2002 for height.

my coach has the humped raised roof right behind the drivers seat.

at ride height, the 2002 newell is 12'3" to the top of the raised roof from the ground measured in the middle of the coach

the exhaust stack adds another 9" for a total height of 13' 0"

the current sat dome is 14" high riding on a 2" platform (12"+2")

the lower roof at the front of the coach is 11'8" high

the new dish is 10.5 inches high

eith the old dish is 12' 10" high new one is 13' 1.5" high

top of stack is 13' 0"

so with the new rfmogul direct tv dish, the overall height is 1 1/2" higher than before.

Hi Tom,

Using your measurements, then a raised roof Newell will not pass under the 12' 9" door header on my garage. Is the roof exhaust turn out the generator's or the Aquahot's? I suppose the suspension could be dumped to allow the coach to pass under the header. That might work as long as I didn't forget to keep the suspension dumped on entering & exiting the garage. Ha, I'd probably forget it and wipe out everything on top of the coach. Interesting that both the M380 & my previous 2000 LXi Wanderlodge fit under the header with plenty of room to spare.

the exhaust stack is for both the aquahot and the genny.

yea, you pretty much need a 14' garage door.

you can dump it down probably enough but it would be close.

i have a 88" ceiling in most of the coach and an 80" in the front.

how tall is yours inside?

Tom, The M380's overall height is 12'4" and the interior ceiling is 78.5 inches. I believe the LXi was very similar.
