Hmmmm ... I wonder exactly what Ford's front-end suspension changes are from 2008 onwards? i.e. Does this mean that as of then Ford no longer is using their good-old Twin I-Beam front suspension on the E350 and E450 cutaway chassis used under so many Class C motorhomes?
Still twin I-beam. Changes include larger ball joints which increases axle capacity to 5,000 pounds, Hyme joints for radius arms instead of donut bushings, sway bar with end-links instead of the sway bar piking through the axle through rubber bushings, and finally a larger brake system.
