Mor/ryde suspension question

I see several posts regarding suspension upgrades. My 2011 comes with a Mor/ryde suspension. Is this the suspension they are looking to upgrade, and if so, what is wrong with it?

Thanks

Lee,
Your suspension should have the "wet bolts" zert fitting for grease at each spring hanger and two on each side of the Mor/ryde suspension. Four fittings on each side. The ones I saw at the factory are facing out.
I did beef up my spring hangers with end caps and gussets. I heard on the factory tour they are heavier now than my 07.
Good Question, Welcome to the forum.
Use to summer at Henderson Harbor, NY.

Off topic - Also your front Landing legs have a zert fitting for grease on each one.

Basically what you have got is what older rigs are upgrading to.

A few have upgraded from the standard MOR/ryde RE (Rubber Equalizer) system to the MOR/ryde IS (Independent Suspension) system.

The RE system has to be aligned by tweaking and bending the axles, whereas the IS set-up is made to be able to do alignments more adjustable like a car suspension.

Thanks for the replies. You guys are a great help.

H. John Kohl,
We have stayed at Association Island several times and I go fishing there a couple times a year. It's about three hours from me.
