Just wondering if anyone can give me heads up as to why my '85 full camper sits high in the front. Or, does it sit low in the rear. Any suggestions as to what can be done about it? I want to replace the shocks and tires for next spring.
John

The Westy more than likely is sitting low in the back end.
Pretty common happeneing.
You'll need more than shocks to correct this.
Be looking at a pair of new springs as well as the shocks if your thinking about getting the Van flying straight & level.
A set of rear accessory Air Lifts would help the Westy bag out situation too---
