RE: Slideout Issue
Yup, that's the one Chuck. It's gotta go. After it's gone the handling is a slightly looser though no different from any other Wanderlodge Wide Body, but the ride improvement is dramatic.

Right off the bat I can see that your shock bushings are sacked.

We're going to have to dial it in for you Chuck. Smile The shock adjustment and bushings, tire pressure settings, the ride height needs to be tweaked, and the tag axle air pressure needs just the right touch for the icing on the cake. Been there done that! Finally, when I free up some time a set-up of auxiliary air tank reservoirs for the steer axle air springs is in the works, prevost and newell style.

I always felt that BB included the right pieces but didn't spend enough time tuning. We can make it better, stronger, faster... the six-million dollar man, er-uh I mean coach! Smile

Is the rapid air loss that you're mentioning loss in the accessory system, suspension system, or brake system? You know the drill, brakes are the most important - build pressure, shutoff the engine, release the parking brake, then depress the service brakes to see if leak down is normal, no more than 4 psi drop after one minute. Right after depressing the brakes you should see about a 12 psi drop, any more means the slack adjusters are out of adjustment.

I'm not sure about the pressure regulator that you attached. The electrical solenoid control leads me to believe that it's for the HWH slide air seal system. I've seen the system used by HWH in the 2000 LXi, mine is different.

The goods are there Chuck, don't fret, we'll sort it out!
