Mor Ryde independent suspension question?

My wife and I will be ordering a new Riverstone 39RKFB soon and I wanted some feedback from those folks who have upgraded to the Mor Ryde independent suspension from the FR factory. Is it worth the $$$? What are the major benefits? Thanks in advance for the help.

Pete

Two coaches with MorRyde IS, one was a Carriage Royals International the other one a Dynamax Trilogy. When Forest River didn't allow an upgrade at factory level I was disappointed but now I have to say that the stock Dexter axles with Dexter EZ-Flex make for a noticeable smoother ride compared to the IS. This is the same someone else experienced here on the forum, so IMHO don't wast your money. The Dexter setup however needs more frequent grease jobs, about every 500 mls. or so.
My 2 cts.

When we ordered our 2018 RE we requested the MorRide IS suspension, and we love it! our rig is 19,000lbs going down the road, and it stays put and tows smooth as can be, no matter what the road conditions are. I would, and have recommended this.

One of the best things I have ever done to the rig.

Mor Ride

You may want to check with FR about the Liberty Rider suspension. They have just started offering it on some models.
