    Towmax by Power King – Facts

    I know I am probably in the minority, but I thought it would be fair to give my opinion/experience with Tow Max tires. I just completed a 7000 mile trip with my Cyclone 3950, at approx. 17K lb. I had no problems with the tires even though some of the roads in the NE are terrible. I do feel that...

    Suspension problem

    Thanks for the leaf spring sheet. Looks like the 3000 lb (4 leaf) is 25 1/4", which is about right for the 3rd axle. BUT the 3500 lb (6 leaf) is suppose to be 24 7/8". which is even shorter and should have even less change for binding. I think they have the wrong length leaf springs on the coach...

    Suspension problem

    If the lenghts are suppose to be 25 1/4" then the only one that is correct is the 3rd axle that was replaced, although it is only 4 leafs and the other 2 original were 6 leafs.I measured approx 27+" from bolt hole to bolt hole on the 6 leaf springs, while under weight so I don't know if thats...

    Suspension problem

    The 1st and 2nd axles have the same length leaf spring, the 3rd measured about 1 1/2" shorter. It confuses me that there is a 33" spacing between the hangers for the middle axle and that would make me think it should allow less binding that the other 2 that are 29 1/2"

    Triple axle suspension upgrade

    Hey Jason, looks like a nice job. can you tell me what the distance is on the leaf springs from hole to hole. I just had my suspension upgraded with the equa-flex in Jan. and took it back for inspection (doesn't look right) I'll see if I can load a couple of pics. Also the new 3rd axle has 4...

    Just mounted my Condor today, I purchased some fittings (sorry I don't know what the pieces are called) at the hardward store that were threaded for wood on the outer dimension and threaded for the 5/16-18 threads internally. Make sure you get the heavier duty ones. To install the heavy duty...

    Outside speakers don't turn off.

    New to the forum and could use some help. I have a 2009 cyclone 3950 with a JVC sound system. I have tried all the knobs and buttons on the unit but can't get the outside speakers to turn off. I see on some threads that people talk about an outside switch??? Any ideas. Thanks

    Slippery Ramp

    Just purchased a 2009 Cyclone 3950, told the dealer to have the unit detailed and inspected. Would you believe that they coated the garage and ramp areas with a silicone. Looks pretty BUT. Slipped/fell, pressure washed with degreaser, Slipped/fell, used more degreaser and straight TSP scrubbed...
