Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shocks

[Spartacus]

This is something that I would like to do myself, but we are not sure if we are going to keep our rig.

I’m late to this thread, but it caught my attention.

We’ve got the same rig as you: 2021 3021RL.

The ride has been a constant issue since we bought it 11 months ago. We see lots of minor issues like the paper towels unspooled all over the place, but I had to pay to replace the thermostat and the wiring because the ground wire ran away from home. And now I need to replace most of the USB wall outlets because they’ve started to give out.

We’re chasing a lot of phantoms and I attribute most of them to the rough ride.

I’ll be interested to see if your suspension upgrades fix your issues.

I will post updates once installed.

We had another incident yesterday with an item mistakenly left on the counter. My big 14-dose pill minder fell off the counter and wedged beneath the slide and dispensed about half the pills in the process. I had to use a lever to partially lift the slide to get it out. Things got colorful after the slide ground the leftover pills to dust.

That looks like a solid improvement!

I highly recommend the roadmaster upgrsdd. But, if you are having hanger issues, IMO, you should get those rewelded and/or reinforced before doing the upgrade. Most any certified welder can add some bracing to strengthen the hangers. There are many photos online of hanger reinforcement. Just do not add steel that interferes with the roadmaster install.

Ours is not that model. It’s a ‘24 3531re. The tv is on a telelevator in the rear and a residential fridge in a slide about midway in the trailer. In three trips we had to replace the rear tv twice because it broke off the mounting bracket. The fridge mounts pulled away from the wall. Everything that was not fastened down was moving or coming off the counters and closets were a mess. We’ve been rv’ing for about 15 years…we know how to pack and travel. After the Roadmaster and shocks, we have now had two pulls with no issue, maybe 200 miles or so. I’ll be surprised if it would not work for your unit also.

Hello fellow Montana owners and fans

I am considering upgrading the suspension on our 2021 Montana 3120rl legacy with the roadmaster comfort ride. Please let me know your thoughts if you have done this. I have had 3 issues with the hangers since buying our rig in Oct 2020 new.

Thanks!!!

I installed the Roadmaster slipper springs and shocks myself. I also installed a air ride pin box. I would do both on my next trailer for sure. A game changer combination.

Hopefully it will be an improvement . IMO it is not worth the time nor money . IMO you want to smooth the ride , the pin box , and IS suspension as said before or the MorRyde pin box . Thats my experience.

we did install and just picked up Monte. Will be doing a good long trip to the Rally in South Dakota next week (from Coupeville).

The other addition was a anti-sway bar to the truck. I have done it on my last 3 trucks. It makes towing my palatible in wind and what not. My truck is a 3500hd
