AVION Travel Trailers

I’m still trying to get our new house done. Rather envious of your journey.

I only replaced one spring on the right side. All others were in spec.
There is a post dated 9/25 that has all the part numbers for rebuilding the suspension and axle assemblies.

Yes, I had the same thoughts as you. Mine were very rusty and pitted like yours. After clean-up, I applied solvent-base rusty metal primer followed by a top coat in black. The spindles looked good. My biggest challenge was replacing the rubber bushings at the inner end. I was able to determine the o...

Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. What is the causal factor behind the failure??

Great news! Don't get too comfortable. There are more turds on the horizon.

I would try to mimic an existing layout for a 34 ft. trailer. Working with an established plumbing strategy is significantly easier that going all-new. The drain plumbing will be your biggest challenge. It is located between the floor and belly pan. There is a lot of complexity below the floor. Thin...

Your biggest challenge is developing a wall and cabinet strategy that takes the curved walls into account. The good news is that Avions are not as aggressive on the curvature of walls as Airstream. But don't expect after-market cabinetry to conform to the wall profile. I suggest developing a method ...

I have never quite understood how a shock absorber functions when it is not perpendicular to the axle. Most shock absorbers are mounted at an angle to the axle, presumably due to spatial constraints within the wheel well. I just might call Monroe myself. After spending nearly 35 years in the automot...

Wise move. Until EV manufacturers are able to sell their product without government incentives, chickens will grow lips before you see me in the market.

Wow. I learn something new every day. I would seem dual shocks would impede the axle from vertical travel. I guess I'll have to some research.
