I had the same problem. I ended up sliding the genturi elbow inside the exhaust pipe. I drilled it to allow the cinch pin to go through both. It is a tight fit and if it leaks, you cannot tell it.

My 2004 Adventurer 37B headlights are so dim I have to run the fog lamps to supplement. It is these small flaws that really ruin what is a really good product by Winnebago.

Then there must be some difference in the stepwell dimemsions between the 04 and 05 or possibly between the 37B and 38R floorplans. Regardless, they fit in mine because they are in there.

Sammie, if the Journey you are looking at is a 2006 model, you should get 14% - 20% off MSRP without much resistance. Class A MH's are selling, but not fast. IMHO
