Slide and suspension issue 08 3400rl

[dhealy3]

Hello and thank you all for all the valuable information over the last year or so. Have been following for a while but this is my first post. Have a couple of issues. 08 3400RL w/ four slides. Two or three open then system stops. Have to wait a bit then, press switch again and the rest will open. Has also tripped the breaker at times. Slide motor or solenoid maybe?

Second question the large rubber boots or bushings, not sure of the correct name, in between the leaf springs have started tearing away in two places on the bottom side on each side of the rig. How serious is this? I have pictures but still trying to downsize them to post.

Thank you all again!

Excellent, sounds great. Thank you for the link. Sounds like simple fix.��

Here are two pictures of the bottom side of the suspension in between leaf springs.

The post with the link to a past forum post will explain why your system is stopping and starting, due to a faulty auto reset breaker.



The MORryde rubber equalizer problem you have is fairly easy to repair. Just call MORryde at, 574-293-1581, and they can sell you replacement shear springs for the equalizer. This is the link to the manual- http://www.morryde.com/uploads/downl...%20Updated.pdf


And this manual will give your torque information- http://www.morryde.com/uploads/downl...0for%20LRE.pdf


And this would be an excellent time to upgrade, as you don't already have the wet bolts installed- http://www.morryde.com/uploads/downl...it%20Flyer.pdf


I replaced ours a year or two ago, probably didn't really need to as it turned out I had a broken leaf spring, but I went ahead and did it anyway. Old and new rubber springs in the photo.

Excellent, that is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so very much. Will get on the phone Monday. Thanks again and safe travels.

Mor ryde has a guide to tell if the rubber shear springs need to be replaced or not. Don't quote me but I am thinking I read that if the separations are more that 3" long and 3/4 " deep they need to be replaced.

[dhealy3]

Yes, that is approximately what they are. I will definitely go ahead and replace them. Thanks so much for the info.
