Is the leveling valve adjusted properly? maybe too much air in the bags?
syxxpactrukn Thanks this. -
Cab shocks and bag? Do you have your load leveled out?
syxxpactrukn Thanks this. -
Many things can cause a rough ride, although, the truck isn't that old, but you can still check front spring hangers, engine or transmission mounts, cab mounts or where your 5th wheel is. A lot of weight on the steer axle will cause a rough ride. Maybe the trailer. I've had trailers that ride a lot rougher than others. Seat isolator working ok?
syxxpactrukn and Riprap Thank this. -
ive had it checked and its set right from what they are telling me
-
i havent replaced the cab shocks or bags yet, thats my next thing im going to do....as far as the load being leveled out some times it is...but it does it bob tailing too
