  • Drives Great after updates

    Posted by Archived on March 25, 2017 at 9:02 am

    Wow, What a difference in the way My old coach drives and rides. With new Air bags, ride height valves , koni shocks all around, new tires with centramatic balancers and brake chambers. All new norgrens. It is like a different coach. Most of the porpoising is gone with low speed turns and bumps. Still have some highway wind buffeting, but not nearly as bad as before the upgrades. But for driving something the size of a billboard down the road. Still not too bad. I drove a full size ford 1 ton van for several years working. And i think it was worse for handling on the hwy. And the new brake chambers made a huge difference. Thanks ETLC !

    Safe travels,

    Rocky

    brake chambers are on my list too, as part of my timed out upgrades this fall.

    Apparently I have developed a small lean in the passenger rear when parked for a real period of time. Noticeable after 4-5 days.

    thanks for sharing your upgrades and experience.

    Hey Mike ,

    I like Your name btw. It is easy to develop a passion for these elegant beasts isn’t it. Do You still have a smile on your face from buying your prevost ?

    Safe travels,

    Rocky

    dorel , I haven’t had a chance to even start looking at it, but at least, from the forum and info I have read and learned I know where to start.

    Going to start looking into it next weekend.

    Gonecrazy – yes- still love it. Have many trips planned this summer and next fall. Some short some long. Loving the drive!
