Hi there, Tiffin owners. Today on your 2011 Tiffin Allegro motorhome, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install Timbren's suspension enhancement system for the rear axle.Here, you can see our two jounce bumpers side by side. Our factory jounce bumper here is significantly smaller than our Timbren. And that's due to, this is really just to be there for support when our suspension is fully bottomed out. Otherwise, this doesn't do anything. It never actually provides any support under most of your normal travel.With our Timbren being much longer, it's going to contact the axle much sooner than our factory jounce bumper would, so it can provide support throughout our suspension travel. more

Dave: Hi there, Tiffin owners. Today in your 2011 Tiffin Allegro motor home, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install Airlift's LoadLifter 5,000 air helper springs for the front axle, and this is what our airbags look like when they're installed. They replace our factory jounce bumper, and they will go in a similar location between our front axle and our frame. They are a little bit slightly further forward, but they're going to perform similar functions except we're going to get those benefits throughout our suspension travel. Whereas our jounce bumper from the factory really only applies once our suspension has bottomed out to give us that support right at that last little bit of travel. Once you hit the jounce bumper on your factory suspension, you've basically exhausted the travel of your suspension, and it gets really stiff at that point, once you're down on that jounce bumper.With our airbags here, we can use air pressure, and you can see that we're contacting the frame and our axle right now when we're under just our normal load, and we're already getting support from our airbags now, before our suspension is even traveled down in its normal resting position. more
