Dasman321 Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 Hi All, I was wondering if anyone here had installed the LCI Centerpoint Airbag suspension on their fifth wheel? I'm considering it for my Momentum TH. TIA Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoDirectionHome Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Much better quality, much better customer support. This is all this company does, providing vibration isolation is a science and these guys understand it.

tyates007 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 I have the Center point system on my Mobile Suites and have been happy with it. We have towed a lot of miles and it definitely rides smoother than my previous rigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billr Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 We had Trail air CP on our 05 Mobile Suite it lasted about 6 years. Then it blew air bags from chaffing when the non greasable bushings wore out. They don’t make replaceable parts at all except bags. We found good used units swapped parts over got two more years then started seeing it stuck over like before not recentering. Finally ditched it went to standard steel dexter equalizers. I would avoid them. Morride independent suspension is a great system. Proven. Cost to have them install is I think around $3-4K. Check with them No more shackles, axles, springs etc. Bill and Joan and 3 Collie pups 2001 Volvo VNL 770 "The Doghouse" Singled short, "ET" hItch VED12 465HP Gen 1 Autoshift 3.58 ratio 2005 Mobile Suite 38RL3 2011 Smart Passion loaded piggybacK Weigh-It Portable RV Scales http://www.weighitrv.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
