Still trying to get things right on my MH. 2000 Beaver Monterey Sea Cliff double slide 4 bag 4 shock suspension. 510AR in front. With the air bag ride height set @ 8.5" Taken from noted location in manual. There is another location that is 9.5" and that also is correct . So, what is the shock dimension from eyelet to eyelet with air bags full. Your help on this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Prizes will be given out at the end of this contest lol. Bob

Bob,
Sorry if I'm missing something but why not set the air bags to the specified height and measure the shock eyelet to eyelet distance on your coach?

Steve- I have a shock ride height with air bags set correctly. I'm trying to match up mine with someone else to see if mine is correct. My is 18.5'' eyelet to eyelet. My shock which is the correct Bilstein 24-186438. It is 20.94'' fully extended. up and down chassis movement is 2.5''. Will the shock over extend? This is what I'm trying to achieve. This is the shock that Bilstein calls out for my chassis.

Well something else new for me. I am park the vast majority of the time but when I am mobile in my coach I have been told by folks that one rear quarter sits lower than the other. I had no idea the ride height was adjustable. No idea how to do it but as I said, I'm parked most of the time.

Michael,
Height is adjustable but I recommend having an experienced shop do it since a mistake can result in the coach dropping to the lowest point and crushing anyone under it.
