loud bang under coach
« on: June 07, 2017, 09:07:54 AM »
We are parked in a spot that is no doubt too slanted left to right.  The air leveling is just able to get us level but it does say it is ok.  The coach feels solid.  The right side is at its upper limit while the left is inches off the ground.
The slides are out (prior to leveling)  but something popped and something went bang and the whole coach shook.  This after we have been here 24 plus hours.  The bedroom slide is out of adjustment and that seems to be the problem as it is now further  off than before.
Looking at the suspension I noted that behind the tag there is a beam with one end bolted and the other has a cable attached.  The right side one seems to have a loose cable.
Any other ideas?

After we circle for the eggs Benidict maybe we can get a couple of us Beavers to take a look. 

FWIW, I used to carry some inch thick  plywood  "jack pads".  It was not uncommon to see them under my Monterey  tires  in a crooked camp site.   With the new rig we just make sure it isn't tilted enough to make me fall out of bed.

R R tire is way lower than the rest.  Going to have to ride it out for a few days.  It appears that the part in question is part of the tag lift.  If I roll out of bed I am blaming the eggs bennedict.
