Am i to understand that 'modern' Airstreams with the Henschen Dura-torque
axle ALSO use conventional shock-absorbers and/or coil springs in their
suspensions? I've nearly committed myself to replacing the Dexter axle with
leaf-springs with a Dura-torque... or, is this suspension overkill only on
the larger, heavier Airstreams?
