F53 Brake Advice
I am looking to replace the brake system on our 1996 Dolphin 535 (Ford F53), as the pads are worn and have begun to gouge the rear rotors. Not to mention the entire system is old, so I want to replace...

Mr. treeDodgingCamper,
While looking at your last pictures I saw your sway bar end link and that reminded me of the high failure rate of the sway bar bushings on the rear axle. Take a look-see while your there. There is a guy on Ebay (skuterdude) that has urethane replacement bushings for a good price. He has been selling bushings for 5 or 6 years. I have some of his first offerings and they still look good.

The garage which inspected the motorhome just put new rear sway bar bushings in. They were indeed shot :) It definitely made a difference in the ride... mostly feels tighter in the back, less sway, but didn't seem to make much difference hitting bridge abutments! However, the new tires made a huge difference. Before the entire house felt like it was coming apart, now it's much smoother. Next, I plan to replace the shocks and I think this thing will ride very nice for what it is.
