Coach mounts broken?

Post by 29desoto »

This is going to be a strange one. My sisters coach, a mechanic in the east, and myself in the west.

My sis's 2001 Chinook 24 footer has apparently broken some pretty odd looking mounts on the rear suspension. They look like three pieces of steel, with rubber inserted between them. And the rubber has come unglued or whatever.

I have some pictures of the mounts, but will I'm not sure how clear they are.
We can't seem to find these anywhere. Anyone had this problem, and found a solution?

That's the "MORryde" suspension system. You find this thread interesting:

You're right, that's the best info I've come up with in a couple of weeks of chasing this thing.

Does anyone happen to have the contact info for this MORryde outfit? Sounds like we need to chat with them.

Many, many thanks for all the info so far.

MORryde is still in business, and a google search yield the following: https://www.morryde.com/

i just switched out my moryde to Weldtec front and rear suspension, and lifted..might be worth the upgrade instead of going back with that. or you could just go with normal leave springs, but not sure about front to rear ride heights.
good luck
