Millhouse Report post Posted April 8, 2011 We are currently considering purchasing a 1999 Rexhall Aerbus with a Workhorse chassis. In the past we have been warned off Workhorse chassis (by a dealer and by an owner of a Fleetwood in an RV resort). The unit is ideal for us, but we wonder if anyone out there has any experiences they would like to share -- negative or positive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted April 8, 2011 Welcome to the FMCA Forum. WHICH Workhorse chassis is it on? There is a huge difference between the original P chassis and the newer-generation W-series chassis. And what size coach is this? Brett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tjwilding Report post Posted April 9, 2011 The unit is a 1999 35'6" - will have to check on the series letter. will post when we have it. Thank you for your quick response! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted April 9, 2011 For a quick check: Look under the front end. If a beam axle, it is the W chassis (much improved over the P). If independent front axle (will look a lot like a Chevy one ton PU with "A" arm suspension) it is the P chassis. In addition to suspension improvement, the W comes with an Allison transmission. You can also look at the GVWR plate near the driver's area. Post the GVWR. Brett Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
