    Angle iron fix!

    I welded a piece of 2” x2” angle iron across both the rear most and forward most hangers. All the way from one side to the other.

    I agree. Lippert stuff is crappy. I had a frame that they let get rusty and just painted over the rust. Great job Lippert.

    What does this sound like when the leaf spring breaks (or anything else for that matter)? We had a grinding noise coming from perhaps passenger wheels the other day when we pulled into a campground. We were in a hurry to park so didn’t explore. A few days later we hooked up and pulled camper and no noise.

    Weak hangers

    Had this happen back in February. I had a blow out and it cracked the hanger. Luckily I found it and HD a welder come and do a patch job before I could get it to a dealership. Took 40 days for them to deal with insurance and parts. Do you have a part number or drawing? These hangers do not like sharp turns. Way too much side load for such a small weld. I did point it out to the service people and doubt it went any further than my lips.

    That’s really a fine piece of work. Elegant and purposeful.

    Glad you made it safely to your destination. We had the same thing happen while in southern Keys. Fortunately we found a local welder who helped us out. When we got home hubby reinforced the suspension and rewelded everything. We still check with every stop. Apparently and unfortunately this is quite common. Safe travels!!

    I was wondering which model MorRyde you used? I find there are different models for different size units even if it says CRE 3000. TIA

    There are two sizes of the CRE3000. You have to take some measurements. Morryde has info on their site with measurement instructions.

    I have ordered new 6k axles and spring kit with Morryde cre 3000, wet bolts , disk brakes etc . to replace 5200 LB axles on my 2019 303 RLS. I also ordered to Morryde x cross members. I have followed some of these threads concerning hanger failure. My question is for anyone familiar with or has used The cross member system. I assume that since they are mounted against the inside of the spring hangers, over the axles, they serve to reinforce the hanger and take some of the stress off these things. Has anyone installed these? Comments? I may look into additional welding or reinforcement for the hangers for peace of mind. I do know that these cross members can not be installed if there were V plate weld mods done to the hanger.
