    174BH Baja Edition Suspension Modifications

    Awhile ago I modified the 2019 Jayflight SLX 174BH Baja Edition by putting taller wheels and tires with adapters to let me run the same wheels & tires as the tow vehicle uses. I was due for new tires anyway and I hadn't done the best job of keeping the tires that came with the trailer covered...

    Question, we have a 2023 Sunseeker on 2022 MBNZ chasis. Whenever driving down the road and going over a bump or dip on the highway the rear jacks hit the pavement. This almost caused an accident when going around a curve at 60mph. The Sunseeker seems too bouncy when driving. When this...

    Leveling my ride

    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...

    Trailer suspension upgrades?

    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...

    Suspension Upgrade for Sunseeker?

    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

    Thoughts on suspension

    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?

    2023-2024 IBEX, NOBO suspension RECALL 24V-029

    Has anyone had the curt suspension recall repaired? I'm curious how long it took.
