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!!

Bill did a lot of work on this post with me, explaining in detail how he did the maintenance on our running gear and replaced our stretched out shackes - I'm posting it in hopes it will help some others who own 5th wheels

I did the MoRyde HD Shackle upgrade on my Redwood last year due to the amount of wear I was seeing on the standard shackles.
Due to the miles I travel year round, I went ahead and upgraded to the MoRyde IS Suspension and Disc Brakes this past summer while in the Elkhart IN area, could not be more satisfied with the upgrade.
Now my Redwood rides smoother than ever and stops great !!!.
