Old RV Spec Sheet?

First of all I want to thank all of you for being in here and all the support. I'm looking to join the group and this forum has helped me to make sense of this whole new world my eyes have been opened to of RVing.

I have been searching high and low for some way to find what chassis, or suspension system, or characteristics like air ride and air bag suspension older model RVs have.

Is there anything like that around?

  • That pretty much answers the question as far add yes or no. I would love your help and advice, I started a New thread under a more appropriate title.

    Basically I wanted a way to find what older RVs have the best and smoothest chassis. I explained more there.
  • You are going to have to get a lot more specific with your question. What is "older". To some, it is anything that is 10 or more years old. To others it is 20 or 30 years. Also, you will find that, just like new coaches today, at any given time, multiple systems were used. For example, my 38 year old coach has 4 wheel independent suspension with trailing arm torsion bars in the rear.
  • I've never seen anything like that. The best sources of information on older RV's are older people. As far as chassis go, class A's were pretty much Dodge or Chevy. I've had both, will be glad to help with any specific questions.
