steering box

[Pete Masterson]

I would suspect that the shocks, if they show signs of being, worn
might offer a modest but cost-effective improvement in handling.
(Does the coach bounce excessively or porpoise?) Unless the springs
and shackles, etc. are clearly displaying out-of-spec sag or other
bent components, that you'll get much less benefit from making any
changes to them.
