I don't claim to have anywhere near the knowledge that Michael has, but when I was researching buying my current Newell, the 1986 is the first year of 102" wide coaches. I also noticed that the 1987 40' Newells that I looked at had tag axels. I encourage Michael to correct me if I'm wrong but your post included 80's so I added my 2 cents.
