Does anyone know where I can obtain (or download) a diagram of the air suspension system such as that used on my '07 XC chassis ? I have the Freightliner "Recreational Vehicle Chassis" manual that came with the coach, and also the Freightliner publication "Knowing Your Freightliner custom Chassis", along with all the Winnebago Itasca owner manuals, which go into some detail on things like Chassis lubrication, details on the air dryer system, scheduled maintenance information etc etc. but what I would like to see is a drawing or diagram or schematic that shows an overall view on how, for example the air compressor, the air tanks, the ride levelers, the air bags etc etc are all TIED TOGETHER in the system, where they are located on the chassis, etc. I would have thought that such a diagram would have been basic to the Freightliner Manual. Nope, or at least I cannot find one anywhere. Any help appreciated. thanks,

You may find that the Freightliner schematic is different from your real life situation. The coach builder added perhaps an air bag leveling system, or an automatic dump system that actuates when you turn the levelers.
These builder added systems will not show up on the OEM, when it left the Freightliner factory, schematic.
Contact the coach builder for a schematic for your particular coach.

This should be close to what you have - it's from an '03 chassis but my '04 seems to be identical.

I don't know if this would help. When I was in Gaffney last fall I took maybe 75-100 photos of the XC chassis sitting on their lot. I'm currently on my air card with not the best of service but when I get closer to civilization I would be happy to e mail them to you.

Please do Jim. I would be interested in seeing them. That's a good idea you had. "A picture is worth a thousand words" after all...... My e-mail is meurigdbiz@aol.com Thanks.

Excellent Gary ! That is exactly what I was thinking of. That schematic shows all the components with descriptions and how they are all linked up. I doubt that my system is any different, but no big deal if there are some small discrepencies. I will print it out and use it as guide when I next crawl under there. Thanks
