    According to Grand Design's build and price on their website these are not an option. You could call customer service and ask as they may do it but do not have it on the website, your dealer should also know this as well.

      Watch Changing Lanes' video on the topic. It may take some coordination on your part, but it can be done. Brian at MORryde will surely help you get this done.

        We just had it done in January, 2020 (second MORryde IS installation for us). It's not a build option but rather coordination with both MORryde and GD to have the unit transported to MORryde and back to GD prior to delivery to you dealership. We had to enter into an agreement with MORryde and pay them separately (although I understand that, at least for a short while, GD was working things out so the cost of the IS could be incorporated into the loan... don't know if that's still the case). Let me know if you have other questions.

          Just my 2 cents:

          They are unique and require unique parts - not available on your travels.

          Leaf springs are cheap and available everywhere.

          Change to disk brakes, add shocks, buy an extra set of leaf springs if you are worried abut it. You’ll be about $5000,000 ahead....

          I added shocks to my 353G. Night and day....

          Disk brakes are next.

            But you are FAR less likely to need replacement parts for the MORryde IS that the OEM leaf spring system.

              No, but as Second Chance mentioned, Grand Design will transport your RV to and from MORryde to have the work done. They did a great job coordinating this work for us.

              Once Grand Design has your "offline date" (date your RV comes off the production line) scheduled, you contact MORryde and get on their schedule. You then let Grand Design know when your appointment is with MORryde and they will arrange to have your RV transported. You are wise to consider replacing the factory suspension.
