Re: [A/S] New Owner



Doug,

That porpoising ("yo-yo") effect use to drive me crazy too. I took care of
the problem by installing Rancho 9000 adjustable shocks, front & rear. You
can adjust the stiffness of the shocks from inside the vehicle without
stopping. Front and rear have separate stiffness adjustments. When the
pavement changes and causes the yo-yo effect I just push a button and
stiffen up the shocks. This stops that annoying yo-yoing (word?). What's
nice is when your not towing the TT the shocks can be set at a low setting
so that you don't get beat to death from over stiff shocks.

Silsby 

PS: We also use Toscano RV in Los Banos as our Stream dealer of choice.
They're really great aren't they.
