I bought the 2004-701 about 1 month ago, and I drove it directly to a repair shop because of big air leaks.
This 701 has been sitting at the repair shop for 3 weeks now. Today I sent 2nd email to check the status of the repair work.
The shop replied to me that the airbags look European made, they don't know where to source them from. So I called Newell and spoke with Morgan. Morgan says 701 is one of the early adoptions of ZF suspension system, and he has no record what is the maker or part number.
Could someone take a look at the photo below, and be able to identify the maker or part number?
Or, if you have a 2004 or 2005 coach with ZF suspension & steerable tag, please post several photos of your airbags (located between drive wheel axles and tag wheel) to show any printed letters or numbers.
Letters and numbers from my coach were almost unreadable but would guess those letters were possibly being "Continental" or "Contitech", and it ends with 82N or R2N
