Ken,

As noted in my response to Hal the coach drives OK and I'm not going to mess with it. We can play with it at Amana time permitting.

Regards,
Rob M.

You have the high weight on the opposite corners of the coach. This is what happens when you try to adjust the ride height without
checking the weight on each wheel.

You have the passenger side torsion bar cranked up too much. That is raising the weight on the right front and left rear. If you
crank out some of that tension the right front, some of the weight will transfer to the left front. Do not worry about the rears as
the automatic height adjustment will follow and some of that left rear weight will also transfer to the right rear.

I like to see them adjusted so the side to side weight difference is the same side. (meaning if the left front is heavy, then the
left rear should also be heavy.)

When Colonel Ken gets in here and tries to argue with my conclusions or methods do not pay any attention to him. We have had this
discussion many times in the past.

It OK to just say "Yes sir, Colonel Sir" (his last name is Sir)
