Chassis
Instructions for drive train and automotive chassis are included in the manual supplied by the
chassis manufacturer.
A frame extension has been added to your motorhome chassis. You may wish to have an
undercoating material applied to the frame extension to protect your investment from the effects of
road grime, salts, and other corrosive materials. Contact your chassis manufacturer before
applying undercoating to the chassis frame. Frames will rust much sooner in salt exposed areas
than in dry air. Also, frames will receive heavy abuse from roads, such as sand, pebbles, objects on
the highway, all of which will cause chipping and a blasting effect on the painted surface. For these
reasons it will be necessary to inspect, clean and repaint the steel members to prevent excessive
rust and insure a longer life of the frame.
Front Axle Alignment
The term alignment refers to both the adjustment angles on the steering axle and suspension and
tracking of the rear axle. Many factors are considered when establishing proper alignment.
Steering components, suspension, wheel bearings and even proper loading will affect your
motorhome alignment. To ensure accuracy, your motorhome alignment was verified at our
manufacturing facility before shipment to your dealer.
We recommend you have the front suspension and steering alignment checked and adjusted after
you have fully loaded the vehicle according to your needs as part of the vehicle maintenance.
Thereafter, it is your responsibility to have the alignment inspected periodically to maintain
vehicle steering performance and prevent uneven tire wear as part of your normal maintenance.
Always have the alignment checked and adjusted by a qualified shop with the proper
equipment to handle heavy vehicles.
NOTE: A road test by the dealer should be included as part of the pre-delivery inspection.
The dealer can then check for and correct any steering problems before you take
delivery of the motorhome. After this road test has been completed, front-end
alignment and/or vibrations will not be covered as part of the new vehicle limited
warranty.
