2011 Coachman Freelander 21QB (3500 Express Chassie)

I am having alot of problem with the suspension on my freelander. It is all over the road, I am getting pushed around by trucks when they come by.

I would like to know what upgrades can be completed to correct these issues.

Ok, sorry....didn't realize it was a mh. There are steering stabilizers available that might help you out. Tire pressure is very important...having too much air in the front tires can sometimes cause problems as well as having a large overhang behind the rear tires.

Do a search here on rv.net on this subject. You'll find a whole bunch of info.

good luck

Advice too.

No; this is a motorhome not a travel trailer. I am looking to upgrade the suspension. I would like advise on what can be done to make it drive better on longer trips, and thanks for noticing the spelling error. (just saying)

I seriously doubt if it is a problem with your trailer's suspension. More than likely, your tongue weight is too low. Typically, you need about 12 to 13 percent of the trailer's total weight on the tongue.

Also, do you have an integrated weight distribution/sway control device? Is it adjusted correctly?

Tires on the trailer and the tow vehicle can cause sway problem also.

You need to fill us in with more info.

PS...it's a Coachmen...not Coachman. Just saying 😉
