1984 35ft diesel Foretravel

[Powder2burn]

I think i bought this coach.

I bought a 1984 Foretravel, 35ft on a Roadmaster rail. with 8.2 Detroit Diesel. off of craigslist in the Tacoma area.

I wish i had read this. a lot of info about the motor.

I do have a major problem, i have a broken main spring on the drivers side. and other suspension issues. It appears that the coach was converted form standard leaf spring to a air spring setup on the drivers. What was done was kind of a make shift / home made setup. Also the Tag axle is set up with air springs but i think this was factory done but it is done as a two point setup with know way of holding the tag axle centered.

do any of you have suspension manuals / drive train manuals, or anything that may help get it back on the road. I am not form this area, i live in Colorado / Arizona (winter). currently stuck in Elma, WA


thanks
