Thanks for the recommendation on where to have the chasis checked out. I am very grateful. This BB has brand new tires all the way around. I did stumble on a post that said from the bottom of skirt to ground should be 19" on front and 20" on back. My measurements were short by approx 1' on the passenger side and over by one inch on the drivers side. (I parked it on a level spot) I know the previous owner had two new airbags put on it. Perhaps they just did not get it adjusted properly and it needs to be tweaked. The coach had sat for a day and I did not notice it rise so I am assuming that is a good indication that there are no leaks. When adjusting those valves should all the tanks be empty?
When driving it this afternoon the ride seems mushy-makes it comfortable though. What are indications that the shocks shoud be replaced? I will take your advice on the towing insurance and will never get under the vehicle untill I have been properly trained on the correct technique. Thanks
