What did you do to your Class C MH today???
This is always a fun thread to watch in other forums, so I thought I'd start one here.

Got my new Bilstein shocks installed. I ordered them online from Shock Warehouse and got the heavy duty set for $396 (no tax or freight), delivered from Florida to Tucson {Fed EX}, in 5 days.
I took the coach down to Southwest Truck Service here in Tucson and had them do the install. Glad I did as watching them struggle to get them installed convinced me it was nothing I could have ever attempted. It took most of 3 hours for one guy and he had help for the last hour. Was charged $89 an hour for 3 hours and had no problem with that ($267).
The 40 mile ride home gave me a pretty good road test though the coach was was running fairly light. The ride and handling have always been good but after 32,000 miles the OEM's were getting a little tired and you could feel the ride getting harsher, especially when we were loaded heavy and towing the motorcycle.
Bilstein/Shock Warehouse both recommended going with the heavier duty models since we run near GVWR and often tow a 1,000# bike and trailer and I am glad I did. I think when we load out the improvement will be even more dramatic.
I'll know on Monday as we are leaving for a 3,000 mile run up to northern California, across Nevada and through the canyon parks of Utah.
