CoilSpring

Built on standard commercial chassis, motorhomes are often seen to sit lower at the front. This goes not just for older models. Many new vehicles come with the same slight nose dip. Whilst this may be inconsequential for a transporter, it will make for an uncomfortable ride in a motorhome. The initial stress applied to the factory coil springs is already substantial given the weight of the motorhome. Bumpy rides on uneven surfaces therefore all too quickly cause the steel springs to reach their limits, translating into hard blows delivered to the body and the passenger area. Needless to say, the shocks will provoke premature fatigue of the suspension. In the long term, worn springs will produce a noticeable drop not only in ride comfort, but worse still, in driving safety.
