Re: Photog's Lifted Suspension 2009 Roadtrek 190V

mine? yes, they're aluminum. they're the american racing ones that came on the unit from the factory - unusual in that they're 16x8, but still zero offset like most of the AR23s Roadtrek used. the AR...

Re: Photog's Lifted Suspension 2009 Roadtrek 190V

looks great, rob - the ride height is maybe an inch higher than mine (probably because you're not loaded to the gills like mine is). check back on page 20 of this post for a comparison photo. those...

Re: Photog's Lifted Suspension 2009 Roadtrek 190V

Re: Photog's Lifted Suspension 2009 Roadtrek 190V

i have never noticed the shocks topping out while driving - let's face it, we're not likely to (voluntarily) unload the front end to the point that we hit full extension. i gave up ski jumping in my...

rob:

remember, i am running maximum weight - 3800 on the front axle and 5800 on the back. you are probably a lot lighter, especially in the back. when i ordered the tuftruk springs a year or so...
