T-818 Handling Package

The Handling Package will make your motorhome handle more like a luxury vehicle. This kit will help with the "white knuckle" drive, meaning less fatigue at the end of your trip. It provides more positive steering, a smoother ride, less front-end pitch and roll and improves tire life. This kit consists of special shock absorbers and a beefier steering damper. You'll feel the difference as soon as you get behind the wheel.

A couple of years ago, Monroe, the leading manufacturer of shock absorber systems in the U.S., introduced a new line of shock absorbers especially for RVs. This was very exciting considering that for the past 25 years we had been using shocks designed for trucks. These shocks are specifically designed for motorhomes. More thought to weight, the manner the weight is distributed and the way the coach travels down the road was designed into this new series.

The Handling Package uses a non-gas shock absorber to provide quicker response and a smooth, controlled ride for today's Workhorse, Ford, and Freightliner chassis. And the stronger steering damper gives a more positive feel to the wheel on curves and off ramps.

The kits includes front shocks with:

Top bracket to align the shock with the coil spring.
Large 5/8" diameter chrome plated piston rod
Large 1-3/8" bore
10 stage full displacement valving
Fluid for all weather usage

The high performance steering dampner acts as a horizontal shock absorber to dampen vibrations in the steering system before they reach the driver. A special gas cell minimizes fluid aeration and prevents fluid starvation. The gas cell steering dampner has:

Multi lip seal
Heavy duty chrome plated piston rod
1-3/8" piston rod
10 stage full displacement valving

The new RV shocks will provide you with:

Better steering
Smoother ride
Less driving fatigue
Minimized front-end pitch and roll
Improved tire life
Standard replacement sizes
