This is a amazing upgrade, and I must thank LAdams and others for this write up as I may never have known about it otherwise.
My 1995 Holiday Rambler 32'TT had all the original suspension parts that were worn out anyway, what a perfect time for this upgrade.
My TT was also factory equiped with shock absorbers. These were Maeco brand shocks part #19176, which crossover to Monroe 555025. I bought 4 Monroe's for 37.99 at a O'reilly auto parts store.
I did this upgrade on Saturday and it went very well. I do not recommend doing this job with the ball joint tool shown by LAdams and others in this thread.
You don't have to buy the tool at Harbor Freight, you can rent it at O'reilly's auto parts or your local Auto Zone store for free. You just hace to leave a deposit for the tool. I rented this tool and saved money that way.
I highly recommend this upgrade, much better setup than stock. Thanks LAdams!
