RVs frequently sit in one spot for long periods of time. Unfortunately, this
takes a toll on suspension components like springs and shocks. If
your RV no longer sits level, sags when cornering, or dips at the curb, your
springs may need replacement.
Two critical measurements Champion
checks on all RVs brought in for evaluation or service are ride height and
axle weights (both front and rear). Ride height is the vehicle manufacturers
recommendation for how high a vehicle should sit off the ground. Generally,
vehicles sag below the specifications over a period of time and mileage. Improper
ride height can affect alignment, handling and tire life.
Knowing the weight of your RV at each corner tells
us whether you have a spring problem, or a loading problem. We
dont just estimate your vehicles weight, we actually weigh your
RV to help us determine the proper spring selection.
So, if your RV no longer sits level, sags when cornering, or dips at the curb, call or e-mail us. Chances are, weve seen one just like it, and can help you find out if your RVs springs are ready for early retirement.
