Ken B,
It was my coach that had the pads and suspension adjustments done that you posted about at the Miller's Work Rally. I just went out a bit ago and adjusted the rear air bags via adjustable links courtesy of the PO. The left side ended up with about eight or ten pound more than the right due to (I believe), the generator on the left and no water in the fresh water tank on the right.
Also, I had a sensitized booster put on along with a new master cylinder while in Florida this past winter at Jim Bounds place. I am just now getting used to it. At first I didn't care for it, but now I get along with it and given a bit more time, I'm sure I will like it better. It did save my bacon once already however when a sudden traffic back up surprised me and I hit the brakes in a bit of a panic and was happy to see I stopped in plenty of time.
BTW, if I didn't say so before, thanks for your help on the suspension adjustment project.
I often need someone to bounce ideas off of to get my "wheels turning".

I knew it was your coach we worked on. I just did not post your name here without your prior permission.
Getting those thick pads in to replace the thin ones was a real job. You and Jim Miller did all of the work. I just sat around with Jim Sr. watching.
I was going to adjust mine today but got side tracked working on an jet ski engine and moving some fenders on my trailer. I had to cut them off and weld them back on 1 inch higher.
