MorRide 3000 axle infromation

[ReadyToRoll]

We have a 2013 Keystone Cougar Toy hauler and wondered about the axle and braking specs of the MorRide 3000. Am assuming that the 3000 is pounds but also wondered about brake drum size and also specs on brake magnets. Amp requirement. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

We can't tell you. But the sticker that's on your axle can. See if it's still attached.

Likely the "MorRide 3000" is the suspension components that attach the springs...

Unlikely that a 5th wheel toy hauler has 3k axles.

MorRide 3000 is the suspension system and has nothing to do with the axle ratings or brake size. I have the MorRide 3000 on my Montana with 7000lb axles

Agree with the above. I have a Cougar X-Lite with the CRE/3000 equalizer system on 5000 pound axles "de-rated" to 4400 pounds. The MorRyde CRE/3000 equalizer system is a suspension component. It has nothing to do with brakes, brake magnets or the electrical system that controls the brakes.

I am a new user of this forum and looking for some suspension insight. I have a 2017 Montana 3710FL. I've heard I can Improve the bouncing of my 5th wheel by adding "Joy Rider" shocks. Is this practical and what info do I need to set this up with my mechanic?

I haven't heard any reports on that brand of "trailer shock kit" but there are a couple of competitors with good reports. I'd suspect that they all are fairly similar, so unless this brand is a "Chinese knockoff with poor quality" it'll probably be similar in reliability.

There are several things you might want to do before installing shocks. I've had them on several "luxury trailers" and they do work, but aren't as effective unless you also do these things:

First, always be sure your tires are inflated to the maximum sidewall pressure rating.
Second, have your tires/wheels balanced.
Third, consider (if it's not standard equipment) installing a wet bolt kit.

Often times, these three things will eliminate the excessive "bounce" and you'll find no need to install shocks. Also, realize that you're going to get some bounce even with shocks. Further, shocks won't stop the "side to side sway" that's inherent with tow vehicle steering corrections, so you're still going to occasionally find some things in the trailer "displaced" or even "thrown from cupboards" even with the best shocks available.

As far as "info needed to set this up with my mechanic" about the only thing he'll need to know is the weight rating that's on the axle tag located on the center beam of your axles and you'll need a "check/credit card" for somewhere around $600-750 for the parts and labor.
