[VAC] Re: Sagging coach



I don't doubt that moving them was a source of problems. What is commonly
held as the problem was moving them with full holding tanks and probably
over bumpy roads where the momentum of the bouncing rear holding tank
contents over stressed the frame and caused it to bend. The factory fix was
to reinforce the frame in the area of the axles as you know. I'm surprised
that the relatively high frequency vibration of out of balance wheels would
have the same effect.
