Just fyi, I think if you have a covered belly the lipperts won't work. Check out the joyriders, they work with covered belly and great peeps to work with. Very happy with mine.

Well Jim and LC I looked at a couple of you tube videos about the Joy Riders, and one was a do it yourself on a Reflection. Looks like a "winter" task. On hwy 67 from Mo to Little Rock I don't think anything stood still in the 5th wheel, in fact we cracked off a small pc of glass on the corner of one of the shower doors. At the rally, I told my wife I wanted to change out the pin box and she wouldn't agree - until that road!

Joy rider has been trying to get GD to put them on the trailers at the factory, so far no go. If you look at their web site the picture is of a GD trailer.

I almost ordered these for my last trailer and decided to just get rid of it for the Reflection. I've been thinking about adding them to this unit but to be honest, after watching this video from their website, I honestly don't see as much improvement in the ride as they try to imply. Is it just me? Watch it again and see if you think the ride before and after is really that much different.

Don't know about the video Paul but it definitely took the bouncing out of mine, especially when the garage is occupied with one of the toys.

Did you watch it though? I/m just curious. I lost a brake light lens on the drive down the I-5 last week and I have some trim pieces that are starting to shake loose and I'm confident my electrical issue a few weeks ago was from some wires coming loose. All can be attributed to how much shaking is going on going down the road. I'm just trying to evaluate if this system will be enough to help some of that.

Yes I watched it. I think you're right it is not so obvious. I think there is more of a dampening effect than a softening if that makes sense.
Paul which part of I-5 was so bad? Thinking of going that way from central cal to rally. 99 is really bad in places in the central valley. Thanks.Jim (& Sharon)
