suspension

I got a 2000 international DT466e 7.5 window(28ft), dognose style bus. Air bags in the back, just leaf springs in the front. Despite being fully built out she squats in the front, a good 2-4 inches lower in the front than the rear. Well, this is really messing with living in it. My sink...

Hello All, I have searched this forum but have not found any information on my 23b Roo (Hybrid) torsion axles. Has anyone had any luck on replacing or using an alternative type of axle? I have not been able to find axle specs on my Roo.

For now, I'm asking Surveyor owners, because of the consistency of design and parts but I'll measure the axle centers in a bit and anyone with the same configuration, is welcome to join in. I'm interested in toughness (for minor off roading / boondocking and smoothness. There can be trade offs...

The rear of our coach seems to sag a little, loaded or unloaded. Has anyone done any suspension upgrades to raise the rear suspension up? Also curious, is the wheel base longer on a 30' than our 28'? Thanks

Hey, new Forest River E-Pro owner, having decided to "go back to my roots with a pull behind after last 20 years of owning Class C's. With kids gone I decided driving a "house" down the road wasn't really necessary anymore. Very happy with the quality and ease of use of the E Pro, just what...

Hello Everyone, this is my first post after sometime browsing this site for a few months. After sometime on the road on my 22 ft shuttle bus to camper conversion. The rear suspension is very jolting, which it appears normal for E350/E450 Cutaway RV conversions. After some research I thought...

It's my understanding as of 2020ish Ford improved F53 suspension, as you know that f53 is under alot of class A rvs. I'd love to hear what you think for those of you that have driven an rv with the update what you think. We bought a 2022 class a with it but 1st owner put Sumos all around and I...

I have a '96 Dodge B3500 Roadtrek 190V. According to a Dodge dealer it has the 4000lb front axle (the sticker under the hood isn't legible). The front suspension is pretty much worn out, squeaks, and one of the ball joints has no boot. Whenever the weight shifts forward the van pulls to one...

Good day, I will be towing a Micro Minnie 2108 at 5500 lbs with a Jeep GC which can pull 7500 lbs, factory tow package, blu ox WDH. The Jeep Overland has air shocks and adjusts suspension based on speed, etc. I have the Curt under dash Bluetooth brake controller but have not yet hooked up a...

It's a 2014-vintage 24 ft. std. Ford chassis class C. Low miles. I'm getting the tires rotated before a trip north, but she does seem to bottom out on potholes and rides pretty rough. Any recommendations for shocks/struts/other suspension upgrades worth the investment? TIA

I have a 2020 Coachmen Freelander on a Chevy 4500 chassis. Has anyone installed sumo springs on these or air bags...I know that I want to add a heavy duty front stabilizer bar to cut the sway down from trucks passing and cross winds, I have seen info for the Ford 450 chassis but not the...

My bus already has rear bags and I've been thinking, how much of an undertaking would it be to add bags to the front? I was thinking about adding controls to set my ride height anyways and began mulling that idea over. I don't expect it to be an easy task but has anyone tried this before?

Has anyone had the curt suspension recall repaired? I'm curious how long it took. I realize torquing the nuts won't take long, however if the bolts are spinning, they would have to remove part of the under belly covering to access the bolt on the top of the frame which would increase the time...

I'm considering purchase of the Surveyor 202RBLE this spring. It has the perfect layout and size for me. The only possible drawback is the leaf spring suspension. I currently own a IBEX 19QBS and it has torsion bar suspension which has a very smooth ride. Should I be concerned about the leaf...

Purchased a 2021Coachman Encore 325ss this past August and was thinking about installing the Sumo helper springs on front and rear of the rig . Just wondering if anyone has installed these or has done any other upgrades to improve the ride and handling. Thanks for your response in advance.

We just installed the Morryde RSX system on our 2021 Isata 5 30FW. For those that don't know, its a rubber shear rear leaf spring shackle. The RSX kit also includes a monster size rear sway bar and 4 Bilstein shocks. We haven't driven it yet, lots of snow here. The kit was installed in our...

Finally got the 2021 Isata 5 in for 2 recall issues. Fuel Pump & brake lines. Heading home the ride was very rough. It seems the airbags have deflated. Where can I inflate and any idea why this happened?

I just had a salesman at MHS say that Dynamax is having problems with the front air suspension system on the Isata 5s, which is why none of the 24s (stock or incoming) have the front air. I read another post confirming the Moryde RSX system will be used on the Isata 5s. I was wondering if...

Just a friendly suggestion / recommendation to visually check your trailer's suspension components regularly after we had a terrible experience of broken parts causing a 9 day delay in our trek to our Winter RV park in AZ and an extra $ 4,700 expense. :crying: Our 2020 Riverstone 39RKFB has...

A topic that never fails to generate strong differences of opinions. Bushings: bronze, nylon or the ever elusive "NeverFail". In April 2023, I replaced my, once again, failed bronze bushings with new bronze bushings. Put the trailer in storage and brought it home to prep for an upcoming trip...

Hello All, I have a 2005 Winnebago Voyage 33V, on a 2004 Workhorse W22 Chassis. I am looking at a major suspension upgrade to greatly smooth out the ride and improve the drive, particularly when towing. I combined a list found on Brazels RV, Firestone Airbags as my mechanic really doesn’t...

See there is suspension change for the 2024 model. Interested to learn details so this is from Morryde’s website. https://www.morryde.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/RSX_brochure_v7.pdf

Hi fellow travelers. We returned last week from a week camping. I noticed the trailer seemed tilted from the front (hope I can download the photos). Never looked like that before. The distance from the ground to the rim of the wheel shroud is about an inch less on the right side than on the...

Howdy, Heading to Alaska early next summer and we prefer to boondock when possible on side roads. Since our generator is barely 5.5" off ground, anything more than the slight berm that occurs between tire tracks will surely take it out. I am looking for suggestions are to successful installs...

2018 XL 377TS on the 24K F53 chassis - 13,000 miles Recently while our rig was sitting on a level concrete floor, we noticed that the passenger side appeared to be about 2~3 inches lower than the driver's side. If it was a boat, I'd describe it as listing to starboard. This was at...
