I have a 2003 CC Allure. Does anyone have the ride height? The travel light will not come on and I need to know if I am at travel height or not. Please provide the proper height and exactly how and where to measure.
That in advance for your help.

Danny, I presume you have the Independent Front Suspension.

The proper measurement if 17 3/4" measured from the center-line of Shock Bolt to Shock Bolt plus or minus 1/16" between Driver Side Shock to Passenger Side Shock. I've never got them closer than 1/8".

This presumes you have the Ridewell 246 Rear Suspension w/ Tag Axle:

Measure the back side of Drive Axle Air Bag from Bottom of FRAME RAIL to Bottom of Air Bag (don't include Air Bag Plate in Measurement), measurement between Driver Side and Passenger Side should average 12 1/2" (no more than 13" no less than 12") as necessary to achieve the 17 3/4" for front.

If not the above, write back your exact Coach Information.

Thanks, Mike 03 Allure 1st Ave. #30898 40' Tag Axle.

Mike,

I should have supplied more information on the coach spec. It is not a tag axle coach. Kevin Waite has supplied me with the ride height and how and where to measure.  Thanks for your comments anyway.
