Suspension surgery

Tommorrow the 203 3295 goes to the shop,7000 lb. axles,dexter ez flex suspension,brakes checked, bearings repacked.Can't afford to buy tires every year.We love the 3295 but would sure be nice if they would put decent running gear and frames under these.Oh well some of us wouldn't be happy if they hung us with a new rope. LOL

A 203! WOW and I thought the first Montys were only built in 1998. Had they even invented the wheel back in 203?
Sorry I just couldn't resist.

I do love your closing statement..."Oh well some of us wouldn't be happy if they hung us with a new rope." How true, how true. I just may have to change my signature block.

That Dexter flex looks like a pretty cool system. I think you will definately notice a difference in the ride back there.

You are where I was on my 2003, about to replace the suspension system with the Mor-Ryde. Got it priced and scheduled, then the DW saw the new Montanas........ got my Mor-Ryde after all.

Minkid, I can see we need to talk you into attending our rallies. With that sense of humor you and we would have a blast around the campfire.
