Really pumped about this site. What a great store of knowledge!
I'm a proud new old RV owner. Been dreaming of small pull behinds for years but just bought a very cool Class A! Who'da thunk?

1993 Thor Four Winds 5000 - 32' 50K mi

Strong running 454 V8 on P32 Chassis (model #P32032) that hates steep grades; Highway 65 south to Branson type steep.

Cosmetically and camper-wise the unit is in very good shape - excellent for it's age. Mechanically it has a couple issues that I hope to get some input on.
1. I am 99.9% sure it has a small exhaust leak. Like a manifold or donut gasket. Is that a common issue? Makes it sound like a piece of junk and it's not.

2. The entire unit has an exaggerated "nascar rake" to it. I believe it may be worn front springs or flat inflatable helpers? How common is this?
I plan to have both these issues looked at by professionals but was just curious. I will check other threads.
