Shock absorbers don’t really absorb shock, they dampen it. Why is this important for you to know? To improve ride quality, or in the case of a tow-able RV, the "white knuckle" factor induced by trailer bounce and sway, it is necessary to understand a little regarding the dynamics a shock absorber attempts to manage. This mod discusses both ride dynamics and issues related with the item, in addition to to know how to mod your RV to drastically develop your driving and/or towing understanding.

Basically put, a shock absorbers sole purpose is to dampen the compression and rebound of any suspension system by controlling the speed at which a suspension cycles. Without them, your RV would continue to bounce up and down until the kinetic energy is finally dissipated from the suspension’s springs (e.g. leaf springs, coil springs, torsion bar, etc.). Now let’s think about the law of conservation of energy. With this law in mind, shocks will perform two functions. The first function is to slow the suspension’s cycling of compressing or rebounding. Secondly, since energy can’t be destroyed, the shock transforms the kinetic energy into heat as it dampens the "bouncing" of the springs. That’s it. That’s what a shock does.

So why is this important? The the greater part of tow-able RVs don’t are available from the factory with shock absorbers! And while class A, B, and C motor homes do have shocks, they are often times barely adequate to

The purpose of an air suspension is to provide a smooth ride quality in any vehicle. This type of suspension is powered by an engine or electrically driven air pump or compressor and it provides the riders of a vehicle with self-leveling and easy handling. However, there are many common problems with suspensions when it comes to any vehicle. Familiarize yourself with these common malfunctions and take the necessary steps you need to for the best in air ride technologies.

Air bag failure: Air ride suspension parts may fail due to rubber drying out. An air strut failure can also occur if the rot is wet, old, or moisture is present within the air system. Debris on the road may sometimes cause punctures to the air bags. With careless installation, air bags sometimes rub up against a vehicle’s frame or surrounding parts, which may also cause damage. Flexible layers may be tearing due to the over extension of an air spring that is not constrained properly by other suspension parts such as a shock absorber. This leads to air bag failure as well.

Air line failure: This occurs when the tubing which connects the air bags or struts to the rest of the air system fails to do its job. This usually happens when a hole is caused by the air lines rubbing against sharp edges of a chassis member or mobile suspension component. It occurs because the air lines must be routed to the air bags through the chassis of the vehicle, which may be a tricky installation. Another typical cause of
