Question for GT5 36B5 owners

[Modmike]

I have a 364TS (older model of the 36B5) which I love except for the ridiculously small 40 gallon fresh water tank.

I read that the new GT5 36B5 has an 80 gallon capacity. When I saw the unit at my dealer, the fresh tank looked the same size so I assume there is a second one somewhere. Is this correct? If so where is it located? I would love to add a tank.

Secondly, I see that the GT5 now has a "MORryde" chassy. What does that mean? Did they install MORryde shackles?

We all have 40 gallon water tanks and the MORryde shackles is just a new type of shackle that holds the leaf springs together. No big deal.

Iggy,

All the GT5 series (31 and 36) have 82 gallon fresh water capacity, check out the specs.

As I said, I saw them and I suspect they added a 2nd fresh water tank, I just want to know where.

Modmike, can you post different angles of that suspension? I am curious of it.
As for my fresh water tank I have a 65 gallon.

I got that pic from the MORryde site. I haven't been able to get under a GT5 yet, I'm not even sure thats what they added.

MORryde builds a huge assortment of RV accessories. Well known for trailer and 5th wheel suspensions. They now advertise motor home components but don’t show any. I don’t remember the GT378 in 2012 looking like your attachment for front suspension.

I know this and that is not on the front, it is on the rear suspension.

I am specifically asking what MORryde components Forest River added to the GT5 series. They have a MORryde sticker on the side but I have no idea what components were added. If I know, then I can figure out what they improved.

Thanks
Went to their website and the product looks like it could soften the ride.
I have an email to them to see how much it would cost to install on my coach.

I already looked at it but think I will save up for a Kelderman system. The shackles are pretty pricey and can't be installed in front. I'm also worried about long term durability, even if the system has been around for 20 years.

My GT5 has that sticker by the door and I called MorRyde about it and they said they may have made some adjustments to the frame but didn’t do any thing to the suspension. I thought I had received a bonus

Too bad
I emailed MORyde and they told me it would cost $1500 for the parts and labor to installed.
He said ready instal
I may have it done.
