shocks

Having Roadmaster Shocks installed with my disc brake install. Installer indicates that we should replace the U Bolts while having the new shocks installed. Reason the installer indicates to replace the U Bolts: "Any bolt, of any grade, when torqued, stretches. The better the grade, the less...

Hi all, My Edge M18 has very little clearance between the wheels and fender skirt. Sitting level its less than 1 inch, however the tires and skirts don't show signs of rubbing. Does anyone have any recommendations on suspension modifications they've completed on one of the Heartland Edge M...

Hello all, I am adding this installment due to a discovery I made after driving several thousand miles on this round-the-country trip so far. Apparently, the assembly plant didn't tighten the nuts on these shocks as the below photos show one of my shocks loose and completely missing the lower...

I found your forum while searching for information about getting shocked from an RV, and saw that a few comments were made here that it was OK to get occasionally shocked. We'll, I'm here to tell you it's NEVER OK to feel any kind of shock while touching your RV. Any more than a few volts AC...

In the fall of 2009 Heartland replaced my axles with longer ones due to the shocks rubbing on the tires. They also replaced two tires and shocks. My trailer was built in May of 2008, in June the factory started using axles a half inch wider. With steel wheels the tires don't rub with the...

Have read a few threads about changing out the shocks and using Bilstein shocks. How do you determine when you need to replace shocks. Now I know there is going to be some good answers, like: When they are hanging down and dragging the ground.:cool: When they look like they are in two...

Hi everyone, I know I will get a differance of opinion on this and that is ok. I currently have a 2005 chev 3500 Dually and pull a BH 3670. I need to replace all 6 tires and wondering what brands should I look to and more importantly which brands should I not look at? I am also considering...

Just ordered our trailer (3010) last week and then found on the Heartland site that shocks are available on the higher end 5th wheel trailers. I had shocks on my recently sold Sunnybrook and I was amazed at how smooth the trailer towed and things stayed in place. Never had a door open and the...

I put Pro Comp ES9000 shocks on the front of my 05 2500 diesel 4x4 and I now have a rattle in the front. Sounds like no shocks at all. Upper rubbers or secure and bottom is secure. Anyone used these shocks before?

I ordered my 09 Sundance 2900MK in Sept. I finally got it in Dec. and it turned out to be a 2010 model to my surprise. I ordered it with the shock absorber option. It did not arrive with shocks but had the Equi-Flex installed. According to HL Customer Service the 2010 is not available with...

I have a 2007 Sundance 3200es that has the shocks for each axle. Last year I replaced a shock on the passenger rear side because the stud at the top end snapped off. This year I just pulled the tires to rotate and balance and the driver rear axle shock is sheared off at the bottom stud. I...

I have an 09 26RK. Has anyone added aftermarket shocks (Monroe or Dexter), if so were they effective in controlling bounce? I also want to add a receiver hitch in the rear so I can mount a cargo carrier to carry a generator (when I get one). TTrox

Well I got a surprise on Friday, Oct. 3. Just as we were coming into Shreveport LA, I noticed some smoke coming out of the right side of the trailer. My first thought was “A tire has gone bad.” I have Pressure Pro sensors on the trailer and truck but got no alarm. Fortunately I had pulled over...
