My first side of the road breakdown
#7

I'm curious about the air hose that the tire rubbed through. Can you be more specific about where that was?
I had a RHCV fail right after I bought my '93. The coach settled with the aluminum siding edge (that is hidden by the fiberglass fender flair) rubbing on the left rear drive tire , rubbing another tread line around the tire and burning the paint off of the aluminum siding above the fender flair. I did a roadside repair by re-routing the air lines at the solenoid block in the engine compartment.
I was disappointed that Newell did not allow proper clearance for such an occurrence such as a frame mounted bump stop to limit the body from dropping so low. Since then I think I heard that some air bags have "stops" built into them and maybe my coach was retrofitted with improper air bags in the past.
I would like to prevent coach damage from air bag or RHCV failure in the future but am not sure of what to do to prevent it.
