Air-Ride Steer and Drive Axle Suspension System
|
We teamed our Diesel Pusher Chassis with
Neway's Steer and Drive Air-Ride Suspension System. The result is the best ride in the
mortorhome industry. Rivaled only by the premium Freightliner "Powerliner"
chassis.
Neway Air-Ride gives you the softest ride in the industry, and excellent
roll stiffness. So your motorhome can glide through even tough mountain curves with a
minimum of lean. Reliability is assured because all suspension components are similar to
those used on Freightliner heavy duty class 8 trucks and tractors. It's the ultimate
performance and reliability package you've been looking for.
