I checked mine, and I have 19' in the
rear, and on the front I have 17" on driver side and 16.5" on passenger side.
I will check air pressure this weekend in tires, to make sure they are all full

Someone owning a 1987 PT38, please air up your suspension (assuming
your coach is parked on level ground) and send me the measurements from behind
the front axle, ground to steel body. And forward of the drive axle, ground to
the steel body. Also measure the top of the steer/drive tire to the fender
moulding.



A PPV (pressure protection valve) was replaced, one located between the two
manifolds behind the cross member in front of the drive axle. The bus still
stands tall from the specs I got from BB over three yeasrs ago...could be I did
not understand what I was told???



Someone suggested that maybe our coach is standing like it should. That may be.
But what I don't understand is the coach body height was always at the specs
that BB provided over three years ago, until a month ago and the body stood
taller than those specs.



Today the RideWell docs came out of the Blue Box. Actually I forgot I had the
docs. Measuring the bag height according to the RideWell docs., the bags are
doing their job except for the rear, or I could say the left rear is hanging or
I could say the right rear is too tall. Only one of the two drive axle ride
height valves have been replaced since I've owned the coach; the street side
ride height valve was replace three years ago; tomorrw the curb side ride
height valve will be replaced.



Will do some serious measuring again tomorrow...or...
