Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Auto Flex installed by Trans West
Permalink  

Well, after reviewing the Auto Flex System and the Mor Ryde system, determining installation options, etc.  Dale decided to go with the Auto Flex System and it's working great!!

We had it installed at the TransWest location in Firestone Colorado. We had a 400 mile drive across Wyoming into Utah and Dale said the chucking motion was virtually eliminated and the ride was much, much smoother than before.

So, we're very pleased with the end result, I don't want anyone to think differently based on what I'm going to say next.  If you decided to have this installed, allow plenty of time.

We contacted the company on August 13th, made final arrangements for the purchase and the install on August 14th.  We were told the system would be shipped from Canada to TransWest in Colorado and should be there in about 2 weeks, TransWest had us on the schedule for just before Labor Day Weekend to do the install.  Shipping of the items did not even occur until the Wednesday before Labor Day, then by the time it was received and our install was rescheduled and completed it was September 11th before we could pick our truck up.  The install took 3 days instead of 2, so the entire timeframe was a bit longer than we anticipated.

If we had known that ahead of time we might have planned a bit differently, one thing for sure we would have dumped the tanks before taking our truck over to TransWest since we had W/E hookups only and they ended up with our truck for 6 days. 

Overall, pleased with the end result, just didn't expect to spend 3 weeks in Colorado.

Ruth,

Is there a website for this product?  I've tried my "Bing-Fu" moves and can't find anything on the company.  Do they go by a different name?

Terry,
I think the system they had installed on their truck was the Auto-Flex air suspension system. See our respective posts in the "Rough riding F350" subject.

Cindy and Jeff,

Thanks for clarifying that.  Now I'll have to "chastise" Ruth because she led me down the wrong path by calling it "Force Flex."  No wonder my "Bing-Fu" skills weren't good enough.

Terry

Terry - so sorry.

Just edited my post to Auto Flex. All I can say is that I was a little tired when writing the post, something about escaping the Colorado floods and the very long drive out of there.

Not a problem, Ruth.  I'm glad you two were able to escape the area.  There are still folks missing there, and our thoughts are with them all.

Terry

Terry - we truly were blessed and so thankful to be able to leave. Our thoughts and prayers are with those in Colorado.
