F-53 suspension sagging on passenger side
2001 Ford 5-53 (33 footer). The passenger side seems to sag about 1.5 to 2 inches. Investigating, sup-pliers tell me this is a "known problem" and there seems to be 3 fixes for this. 1- air bags ...

Have you checked to see, if theres any spacers under the springs from the factory.
Our 99 F53, has about a 1" spacer on the drivers side rear spring, I guess to off set the weight of the genset when it was new, to level the coach & now we have the same tilt to the passengers side as you have.
Adding spacers to the passengers side on front & rear springs would be the cheapest, but the air bags route, would do several things other than just level the coach up.
