Seneca 37fs

Hello all jerry here and new to the forum .Just purchased 2018.5 fs 37 and noticed that it leans to the passenger side. You can see it in the wheel wells and at the back bumper. My guess air bag? Any feed back on a fix would be greatly appreciated.

Frequently a lean can be fixed by adjusting the links from the air "height control valve" to the rear axle. Each side can be adjusted individually, this varies the amout of air in the air bag and as a result the height. In some cases just adjusting the airbag(s) isn't enough and some rigs had to have a shim installed in a front spring. Generally a first owner had this done under warranty by Freightliner. But you are likely out of warranty and will have to do this out of pocket.

Some models of Freightliners have adjustable linkage, others you loosen the bolts where the leveling valve attaches to the bracket which attaches to the frame. One of the holes in the mounting bracket is slotted and you can "tip" the leveling valve itself to alter the ride height. Be sure to tighten the bolts back down!
