suspension

Having Roadmaster Shocks installed with my disc brake install. Installer indicates that we should replace the U Bolts while having the new shocks installed. Reason the installer indicates to replace the U Bolts: "Any bolt, of any grade, when torqued, stretches. The better the grade, the less...

Hi all, My Edge M18 has very little clearance between the wheels and fender skirt. Sitting level its less than 1 inch, however the tires and skirts don't show signs of rubbing. Does anyone have any recommendations on suspension modifications they've completed on one of the Heartland Edge M...

Hello all, I am adding this installment due to a discovery I made after driving several thousand miles on this round-the-country trip so far. Apparently, the assembly plant didn't tighten the nuts on these shocks as the below photos show one of my shocks loose and completely missing the lower...

Has anyone ever heard of installing an Airbag suspension kit between the leaf springs/axle and frame to level the 5th wheel side to side? It seems to me that one could just leave the bags near empty while towing and the once parked, simply inflate the low side to level the coach side to side...

Hi, Just a little note here. I just had the Center Point Suspension installed by a Lippert technician, and just last week he fixed an air leak in one of the connections to the air bags. He told me Lippert does not recommend shocks to be installed with this system, even though the Trail Air...

I am placing this in this form because it is the closest one to the subject. Tires and suspension. I have some information for those that have Mor/Ryde IS installed on their trailer. The other day my Pressure Pro (thank you pressure pro) alerted me to a low left rear tire on the trailer. I...

After seeing Jim B's new trailer with a air suspension; I did some research on some options that are available. First, the system that Jim has is the Trailer Flex system. it appears to be designed by LBC Trailer out of Ontario, Canada. I found that PJ Trailers is a distributor of the...

Hi I bought a 2009 Bighorn 3055RL and will be picking it up in the spring. I will be towing it with a 2005 Chev ext cab short box 4x4 , 2500HD diesel with a 16K Super Glide hitch. I have been following the threads about suspension problems and would like some opinions from experienced RVers...

Last summer I had a serious leaf spring breakage in Oregon. Lippert replaced them with 3 leaf springs, the same kind that broke, and I only lost 2 days on the road. Unfortunately, Lippert only reimbursed me $65 for a brand new Goodyear 614 $315 dollar tire, and told me they don't warranty...

I am in a quandry so I will turn to any of you that may have an answer to this question, about soft but firm suspension in my tow truck. I thought I was buying the right suspension and springs in my new 2008 Ford F-250 6.4 dual cab diesel last year. The ride even with lowering tire pressure is...

Gang: One thing that has sort of turned me off on considering the MorRide system was the impression that it could ONLY be installed at the MorRide facility in Elkhart, Indiana. In my internet perusals, I have come across an installer in Grant's Pass, Oregon. They also install the other...

The Lippert rep did a great job of installing the Center Point and 8K axles on our Augusta. We are running about 10 psig higher on the off curb side to make the trailer run level on level ground. Rides great and stops better. With the brake controller on 10 you can lock up the trailer wheels. We...

Lippert completed this upgrade on our Augusta. Excellent work and we are extremely happy with the ride and braking with the larger brakes. We also have air bags on the TV and a Fifth AirBorne pin. Best overall towing experience of all the larger trailers we own and have owned. Certainly money...

Is my thought process correct on this one..........having ordered the landmark agusta, with the standard 7,000 lb axles, does that mean I can only load it up including trailer dry weight to 14,000 lbs ? It would make sense to me but ?......... according to the brochure its gvwr is 16,200 thanks...

I have on order a 2010 landmark agusta with the landmark package, it comes with the goodyear tires and trail air suspension, I would like to know if that has been an upgrade from previous units that have had problems with the suspension breaking ect ect. thank you for any and all information...

Anybody heard of Roadmaster Active Suspension. Anybody useing it and how do you like it

Hi everyone, how often do you grease your trial air suspension (grease fittings between the tires). I ask the dealer and he said 'every once in awhile'?? Also, how much grease and what type. Not talking about the bearings, just the suspension grease fittings. thanks aatauses

Will be camping at Mor/ryde for next two days and then into Goshen for ralley... Arrived at Mor/ryde this afternoon (Monday) and got plans worked out. Will not do the IS due to my concerns about weight issues. I am just under the max for TV & trailer and I want to stay as legal as I can...

I am new to the forum and will be picking up a 2009 3200ES this Saturday. It has the standard spring and shocks for suspension and I wanted the Equa-Flex Suspension system. It has the upgraded axle and 16"tires. The floor plan was discontinued for 2010 and it is the one the wife had to have...

Has anyone used the Roadmaster system? I saw this today at my dealers and it looks like it might be a good option vs airbags. Any feed back??? www.activesuspension.com

Tonight I heard that Trailair makes a "wet kit" for the equaflex suspension so it can greased etc. Our Landmark came with this suspension system but could the factory advise if it would have had the "wet kit" on it, which may have been an extra option?

I had a problem with the axle spacing between my tires on my last trip. Driver's side rear axle had seemed to "slip" towards the front and the tires were actually rubbing together when I would hit a bump - when parked the space between the tires was barely enough to put your finger through...
