Your 2019 Coachmen Freedom Express 246RKS is equipped with tandem 3500 lb axles.

For that setup, the exact system needed will depend on where the leaf springs sit in relation to the axle. If the leaf springs are bolted atop the axle, you'll want to use two of the # TSS-107-40 kits. If the leaf springs are bolted to the underside of the axle, use two of the # TSS-106-40 kits.
