Violent front end shaking
Hello all, I'm new to the forum and have been enjoying RV'ing for the last 2 years.
My RV is a 2007, Class C, 26" Fleetwood Jamboree with the Vortex engine and Chevy Express chassis.
The issue that I am experiencing is that, while driving (on the trip back home, after I have used the front stabilizers during camping(I only take the front end high enough to level and stabilize the RV. Tires never come completely off the ground), when the brakes are applied at normal speeds (30-40 MPH), the front end will start to shake excessively. the shaking can be very violent, especially when going down hill. After driving a couple of miles on flat road, the issue goes away until the next time the RV is jacked up on the stabilizers. I have taken the RV to the local RV shop, they have been able to duplicate the issue, but cannot find the root cause. they say the suspension is tight, nothing is wrong with the rotors and brake pads, and I just had Bilstein heavy duty shocks put on last year also. Does anyone have any recommendations or have experience with this issue? I'd really like to get it fixed before my next trip. It seems very unsafe.
Thanks!!!
