Koni shock adjustment on LXi's
David,
Thanks to your good advice, my coach is a lot calmer now. It hardly porpoises at all. The Diesel mechanic who worked on it did not remove any of the wheels but said he spent 4 hours labor reaching, adjusting and reopening all six shocks. He had to use a hydraulic pull and chain to pull them back up. He turned the fronts one whole turn to full firm. He turned the four rear shocks to about 3/4 firm..and we also tightened the air valves to firm up the ISRI drivers seat. That also made a big difference. Your advice on Leather CPR was also good. I got a jar at Bed, Bath and Beyond. It's not a miracle, but it certainly helped mask the hairline cracks and color variations in the leather and gave it a nice bronze glow without being greasy. Instead of using the sponge-applicator, I switched to a shoe brush and got deeper and more even application. The wide shoe brush was also easier to hold and covered a lot more territory in less time. I buffed with a terrycloth towell which generates more heat than microfiber for better buffing results.
