Gang:
I want to inform all of you of something I found on the suspension system of my 07 Bighorn 3670RL.
After numerous postings here on suspension problems, I had the suspension inspected by a 30 year experienced, certified, 3rd party RV service facility. They found 3 of the 4 springs flat (another story) and BOTH OF THE EQUALIZERS HAD WELDS THAT WERE COMING APART.
I had the springs and equalizers replaced during my current long stay in Oregon at a similarly qualified 3rd party RV service center in Eugene. They gave me the old equalizers. The welds from the top plate to the side plates did not show evidence of "sticking" to the side plates. The welds did not crack, they were not performed correctly in manufacture (side plate metal did not get heated enough?).
I am trying to contact Trail-Air for some rebate on this.
