Success stories of using Road Master shocks?

[Sportsdad60]

Called my RV guy in MT, planning to have him install this kit as I'm 60 now and not as spry and young as I once was to do stuff on my back
Anyone have these? I need them for 25 miles of wash board dirt road to get to our fishing hole in Central MT.

I installed the Joyrider version almost 6 years ago and very happy with it. Especially when my Fiat is in the garage the trailer would act like a diving board after going over a bump. The bouncing would continue for several oscillations. Sometimes a bit unnerving.

After installing the kit it was MUCH better. Bouncing would settle down immediately. In fact a friend was following me once and commented on how nicely my trailer settled down after a bump (even without a load in the garage) compared to his.

Now almost 6 years later I noticed the bouncing has started to return. Hmmmm. Pulled off the shocks to check them and 4 were almost useless and 2 were still doing a little bit of dampening. I called Sonny (sold Joyrider a couple years ago) to get part number for replacement shocks and he was still happy to help. They are Gabriel 81878 (at least on my triple axle version.) I figure 5-1/2 years of good service is pretty good. New shocks go on next week.

It was a good reminder of how much the shocks helped with the bouncing.

I had the Roadmaster Suspension RM-2460 installed on my 2021 Solitude 3740BH and the towing experience was massively improved! After our 2500 mile road trip I don't think I'd tow a trailer without shocks again! I called around to a number of shops and the three that were familiar with the product quoted 4 hours labor to install. At the time the rate was $120/hr.

If you look for a video on U tube titled, "Roadmaster Suspension Installation on RV Trailer" by rollinontv. Go to 4:12 and you can see a before and after inside video.

Installed on our Solitude myself and have several thousand miles on them now. Money and time well spent!!! You would not be disappointed.
