Does anyone know the cost of replacing the rear leaf springs on a 2003 Workhorse W22 chassis (parts and labor). I just returned home from a 5,700 mile trip and during the past few weeks of the trip, I noticed my MH was one inch lower on the passenger side. It has been inspected and there are no visible cracks in any of the springs. My guess is the right side springs are getting weak and starting to sag. The weight distribution is good. I do not want to put air bags or SumoSprings on it to level the ride because that is just a band-aid approach. My motorhome has 62,000 miles on it. I've search the forum, but could not find any recent posts regarding the cost.
Well, I did the "band-aid" air bag thing 7 years and 40,000 miles ago. I run one side at 100 psi and the other at 50 psi. That levels the MH side to side and gets the rear up where it should be. It's worked fine all those miles and years.
The bags were around $260 (if my memory is correct) and I installed them myself.
