Workhorse w-22 shocks
As a "newbie", if this has been asked before, I apologize.
BUT.....I am picking up my "new to me" 2004 Mountain Aire, gas, Workhorse W-22 chassis, at the end of the month.
Been reading the posts about SHOCKS!
Having driven this coach, it seems to drive well, but as a rookie, I'm not sure about the shocks. Seriously considering replacing them, when I get the coach back home to Virginia. Sway bar's are another topic, I'm sure.
Considerimg the Koni shocks, but looked at Bilstein as well.
I read a "comparison" test, & it stated that the Koni's reduced corner roll & provided good damping. Article then stated that the Bilstein's provide a softer ride, & all but eliminated the expansion joint bump felt. So, the article confused me more than ever.
What experience have y'all had with these shocks, the damping , the corner roll, expansion joint bumping, etc., especially on a gas model?
What recommendation? I have an idea what I think, but need the expertise of you, the experienced coach owners.
Sorry for the long post....but I just want what's best, more important, what's safest, & provides the most stability!
Thanks for your help!
