Hello, and looking for advice

[ClydesdaleKevin]

Looks like its a single axle.  Probably leaf springs and not Mor/Ryde.  Either suspension is good, just one is more complex and complexity leads to more expense to fix things.

The Mor-Ryde was available as an option on all 28-30 foot HR+Aluma-Lite class A Motorhomes.  But is Standard equipment on ALL Imperials.


So unless the original buyer chose that option, then Kevin is correct.

Looking underneath it I remember seeing leaf springs in the rear and a massive sway bar setup, but I didnt know if the rubber spring was in addition to all that...

On another note, summit racing has edelbrock shocks for the rear of the P30 motorhome chassis on sale for $62.

No, it's either one or t'uther.  I lucked out in that the Mor-Ryde on my RV is in good shape.  The front coil springs were what I had to replace.  I used the leveling jacks to jack her up onto jackstands and did all the work in one day.  Not sure how to do leaf springs.

So like after checking out a few more machines, I came back around to the rambler. I can't believe the utter garbage that is out there. When you ask a guy on the phone if there are any leaks or water damage, and he tells you only a small leak above the driver side window... And you get there and EVERY VISIBLE PIECE OF WOOD IS BLACKENED, SWOLLEN AND ROTTEN I swear it is hard to keep calm sometimes, hah!

I left the guy a deposit and will pick it up in a couple days.

[M & J]

That's the spirit!

[ClydesdaleKevin]

Some of the rigs I've walked though N:( .......OMG!! It's hard to believe people can waste something so bad....You know when a rig is bad if you think it should be in a scary movie, and you don't touch ANYTHING inside..

[LJ-TJ]

 Hm? So does that mean you bought it.

[Stripe]

Funny, after re-reading Eyesores' last post, it could be read as he got the one with all the rotted wood.. Just sayin'.. 

[TripleJ]

Sorry, I'm distracted, plus typing on a phone... Yes, it's the rambler in my first post that I'm buying

Looks really nice congratulations on your purchase looking forward to see what you do with it to make it your own 

[TripleJ]

thanks fellers. i like it, and yes it needs plenty of work.

the PO says the fridge works on electric, but something like he couldn't get the gas to light 

I pretty much intended to delete the TV antenna all together.

yes I am planning on using the pull down bed, unless I can think of some other arrangements for the second kid.

I appreciate the welcomes. I think you'll be seeing a lot of me

[Stripe]

From the looks of the roof pic, one of the PO's removed the roof storage bin.. I dunno what I'd do without mine..

As far as sleeping, that pulldown has a cool factor with kids.  Did the RV come with a ladder to get up into it?  I found myself a cheapie at a RV wrecking yard.  I bet given the option of sharing the pullout couch/bed one or the other kid will gladly sleep in it.  I've used mine just to see how it felt.

[legomybago]

Contents under the couch?

Thats awesome...

I like the black window frames too
