Overview

The Reyco Granning 240AR is a legacy air-ride drive-axle suspension used on recreational vehicles, motorhomes, specialty chassis, and application-specific commercial vehicles. It was manufactured in single- and tandem-drive-axle configurations.

The single-axle version uses a four-point air-spring arrangement, while the tandem version uses an eight-point arrangement. Each axle is supported by two air springs connected to two trailing taper-leaf spring beams.

The taper-leaf beams carry structural loads and help guide the axle through its suspension travel. Torque arms position and align the drive axle or axles, while a track rod on each axle controls lateral movement beneath the frame.

A standard 240AR installation uses an 8.5-inch ride height. The tandem configuration was offered with standard 52-inch axle spacing and an optional 54-inch spacing. Reyco Granning produced other application-specific versions, making complete suspension identification important when ordering replacement parts.

The 240AR is now classified by Reyco Granning as a legacy recreational-vehicle suspension. Many remaining systems are installed on older motorhomes and specialty vehicles that require continued inspection, maintenance, and replacement-part support.

How the Suspension System Works

Compressed air inside the suspension’s air springs supports the chassis, vehicle body, passengers, cargo, fluids, and onboard equipment.

When additional weight causes the chassis to move below its specified ride height, the height-control valve supplies air to the springs. When weight is removed and the chassis rises, the valve releases air from the system.

The 240AR uses one height-control valve regardless of whether the vehicle has a single- or tandem-axle suspension. The air springs on each side of the vehicle are connected through the suspension’s air-line system.

Two trailing taper-leaf beams are used on each axle. These beams connect the axle assembly to the frame hangers and move with the axle as the suspension travels over road irregularities.

Torque arms control forward and rearward axle position. Adjustable torque arms allow the axle alignment to be corrected, while rigid torque arms maintain the suspension’s structural relationship on the opposite side.

A track rod is required for each axle. The track rod limits side-to-side movement and helps keep the axle centered beneath the vehicle frame.

Shock absorbers slow rapid suspension movement and reduce repeated bouncing after the vehicle travels over bumps, pavement joints, driveway transitions, or uneven road surfaces.

Suspension Position and Function

The 240AR is installed between the vehicle frame and a rear drive axle or tandem drive-axle group.

The suspension’s functions include:

  • Supporting the rear chassis and vehicle body
  • Maintaining the specified ride height
  • Allowing controlled vertical axle movement
  • Reducing road shock transmitted into the vehicle
  • Controlling forward and rearward axle movement
  • Limiting side-to-side axle movement
  • Maintaining drive-axle alignment
  • Maintaining driveshaft and pinion geometry
  • Helping the tires remain in contact with the road
  • Supporting consistent vehicle handling
  • Improving passenger and occupant comfort
  • Protecting interior equipment from excessive vibration

The suspension’s frame hangers require properly positioned crossmembers. These crossmembers support the suspension mounting locations and help transfer loads across the vehicle frame.

Reyco Granning manufactured additional versions of the 240AR. Exact dimensions, components, axle arrangements, and installation requirements must be confirmed using the suspension identification and vehicle records.

Capacity, Ride Height, and Axle Travel

The 240AR was produced for application-specific vehicle and axle ratings. The suspension must be matched to the vehicle frame, drive axles, brakes, tires, wheels, and completed vehicle weight.

Its mechanical capacity does not automatically increase the vehicle’s gross axle weight rating or gross vehicle weight rating. The completed vehicle remains limited by its lowest-rated structural or operating component.

The standard installation information identifies an 8.5-inch ride height. Other application-specific versions may use different dimensions and should not be adjusted according to the standard measurement without confirmation.

Correct ride height is necessary for:

  • Proper air-spring shape
  • Available upward and downward suspension travel
  • Correct shock-absorber position
  • Proper torque-arm geometry
  • Correct track-rod position
  • Drive-axle alignment
  • Driveshaft and pinion angles
  • Tire and body clearance
  • Stable vehicle handling
  • Consistent floor and body height

A vehicle operating below its specified height may have insufficient upward travel. A vehicle operating too high may have limited rebound travel and excessive driveline or suspension angles.

Ride Quality and Load Distribution

The air springs help isolate the vehicle frame and body from road impacts. This can improve comfort for drivers, passengers, and motorhome occupants compared with many conventional steel-spring arrangements.

A more controlled ride can also reduce vibration affecting:

  • Interior cabinets
  • Furniture and appliances
  • Windows and body panels
  • Electrical equipment
  • Generators
  • Water and holding tanks
  • Passenger seating
  • Cargo restraints
  • Chassis-mounted components

On tandem configurations, suspension condition and axle alignment affect how the tires contact the road. Actual axle loading also depends on body layout, fuel, water, cargo, storage compartments, passengers, and installed equipment.

The vehicle should be weighed in its normal operating condition to verify individual axle weights. Suspension air pressure alone does not provide a complete or certified weight measurement.

Suspension Controls and Adjustment Options

The standard 240AR system uses one height-control valve for the complete suspension. On tandem configurations, the valve is mounted in connection with the forward drive axle.

The height-control valve supplies or releases air as the chassis moves away from its specified ride height.

Application-specific controls may include:

  • Mechanical height-control valve
  • Suspension dump control
  • Temporary chassis lowering
  • Low-air warning
  • Dash-mounted air control
  • Automatic leveling
  • Manual inflation connection
  • Motorhome leveling-system integration
  • Body-equipment interlocks
  • Service inflation connection

The pressure-protection valve helps preserve air pressure for essential vehicle systems while supplying the suspension. An air filter helps protect the height-control system from contamination.

The vehicle should return to its specified ride height before road operation unless its original operating instructions state otherwise.

Alignment and Suspension Geometry

The 240AR uses torque arms and track rods to control drive-axle position.

Adjustable torque arms are normally installed on the left side of the vehicle, while rigid torque arms are used on the right side. The adjustable arms allow technicians to correct axle position during alignment.

On a single-axle installation, one track rod supports and laterally locates the drive axle. On a tandem suspension, each axle requires its own track rod.

Reyco Granning’s standard tandem arrangement positions the track rods from opposite sides of the frame. This helps control the lateral position of both axles while accommodating surrounding suspension and driveline components.

Correct alignment is important for:

  • Straight vehicle tracking
  • Even tire wear
  • Correct axle spacing
  • Proper tandem axle relationship
  • Reduced tire scrub
  • Stable braking
  • Correct driveshaft angles
  • Reduced rolling resistance
  • Predictable handling

Alignment should be inspected after:

  • Initial installation
  • Torque-arm replacement
  • Track-rod replacement
  • Spring-beam replacement
  • Bushing replacement
  • Drive-axle replacement
  • Ride-height adjustment
  • Frame repair
  • Collision damage
  • Severe curb impacts
  • Appearance of irregular tire wear

Ride height should be verified before final alignment measurements are performed.

Axle, Brake, and Wheel-End Options

The 240AR was installed with application-specific drive axles, brakes, and wheel-end equipment.

Possible equipment includes:

  • Single rear drive axle
  • Tandem rear drive axles
  • Single-reduction drive axles
  • Application-specific axle ratios
  • Air drum brakes
  • Hydraulic brake equipment on applicable chassis
  • Dual rear wheels
  • Conventional wheel ends
  • Oil-lubricated wheel bearings
  • Antilock braking systems
  • Application-specific hubs and seals
  • Automatic lubrication equipment
  • Tire-pressure monitoring equipment

The installation manual notes that brake camshafts must be positioned on the forward side of the axle for clearance in the standard configuration.

Axle seats and related components must provide adequate clearance for the brake chambers, camshafts, suspension beams, shock absorbers, and surrounding chassis equipment.

Common Applications

  • Class A motorhomes
  • Recreational vehicles
  • Front-engine motorhome chassis
  • Specialty recreational-vehicle chassis
  • Commercial vehicle conversions
  • Mobile medical vehicles
  • Mobile command centers
  • Specialty passenger vehicles

  • Vehicle leaning to one side
  • Rear chassis sitting too low
  • Slow suspension inflation
  • Frequent air-compressor cycling
  • Audible air leakage
  • Excessive bouncing
  • Harsh ride quality
  • Unusual body roll
  • Clunking from the rear suspension
  • Poor vehicle tracking
  • Driveline vibration
  • Irregular rear tire wear
  • Uneven tandem tire wear
  • Movement of interior cabinets or equipment

The suspension should be inspected before continued operation if a sudden change in ride height, handling, or axle position occurs.

Maintenance and Ownership Notes

  • Inspect air springs for cracks, cuts, abrasion, and leaks.
  • Check air lines and fittings for damage.
  • Inspect the height-control valve and linkage.
  • Verify that the suspension maintains its specified ride height.
  • Inspect the pressure-protection valve and air filter.
  • Check the air reservoirs and compressor system.
  • Inspect shock absorbers for leakage or damage.
  • Check upper and lower shock mounts.
  • Inspect taper-leaf spring beams for cracks or deformation.
  • Check spring liners and axle seats.
  • Inspect U-bolts and axle-attachment hardware.
  • Verify U-bolt and alignment fastener torque.
  • Inspect rigid and adjustable torque arms.
  • Check torque-arm bushings for deterioration.
  • Inspect each axle’s track rod and mounting brackets.
  • Examine frame hangers and crossmembers for cracking.
  • Monitor tires for alignment-related wear.
  • Check driveshaft and pinion angles.
  • Inspect the suspension after overloading or severe impacts.
  • Use the service information for the exact suspension configuration.
  • Reyco Granning’s legacy manual emphasizes rechecking critical bolt and nut torque after the first 1,000 to 3,000 loaded miles following installation and during annual inspections thereafter.

Common Suspension Problems

  • Air leakage: Damaged air springs, air lines, fittings, valves, or reservoirs can cause the chassis to settle or prevent normal inflation.
  • Incorrect ride height: A faulty height-control valve, damaged linkage, restricted air line, or improper adjustment can position the chassis too high or too low.
  • Vehicle leaning: Uneven loading, restricted air flow, damaged springs, valve problems, or structural damage can create different side-to-side heights.
  • Excessive bouncing: Worn shock absorbers, incorrect ride height, damaged air springs, or improper vehicle loading can reduce suspension control.
  • Harsh ride: Low air pressure, incorrect ride height, restricted suspension travel, binding components, or overinflated tires may increase harshness.
  • Irregular tire wear: Incorrect axle alignment, worn torque-arm bushings, worn track-rod bushings, or wheel-end problems may cause abnormal wear.
  • Tandem tire scrub: Incorrect axle spacing or misalignment between the two drive axles can cause the tires to work against each other.
  • Driveline vibration: Incorrect ride height, altered pinion angle, shifted axle position, or worn torque-arm components can change driveshaft geometry.
  • Side-to-side axle movement: Worn track-rod bushings, damaged brackets, loose fasteners, or a bent track rod can allow lateral movement.
  • Loose axle attachment: Improperly tightened U-bolts or damaged axle seats can allow the axle to move against the spring beams.
  • Structural cracking: Corrosion, overloading, impacts, loose fasteners, or improper repairs can damage beams, hangers, brackets, or crossmembers.
  • Difficulty locating parts: Legacy configurations may require original vehicle records, component measurements, and individual part numbers.

Comparison to Similar Equipment

Compared with the Reyco Granning 102AR Air Suspension, the 240AR is a legacy suspension associated primarily with recreational-vehicle and motorhome applications. The two systems use different installation arrangements and should not be treated as interchangeable.

Compared with the Reyco Granning 79KB Suspension, the 240AR uses air springs to support the chassis. The 79KB is a single-drive-axle steel-spring suspension.

Compared with the Link UltraRide Suspension, both systems may be found on recreational vehicles and specialty chassis. UltraRide includes application-specific conversion and rear-suspension solutions, while the 240AR is an older drive-axle air-suspension design.

Compared with a conventional leaf-spring suspension, the 240AR can provide a softer ride and more consistent chassis height. However, it requires an air supply, height-control equipment, and additional air-system maintenance.

Compared with a modern integrated motorhome chassis suspension, the 240AR uses a more traditional combination of air springs, taper-leaf beams, torque arms, and track rods.

Regulatory and Compliance Notes

The suspension’s mechanical capability does not override the vehicle’s gross axle weight rating, gross vehicle weight rating, tire capacity, wheel capacity, brake rating, or legal road-weight limits.

Suspension repairs and modifications must preserve:

  • Brake-system operation
  • Steering and handling stability
  • Drive-axle alignment
  • Driveshaft and pinion geometry
  • Tire and wheel clearance
  • Fuel-system protection
  • Exhaust-system clearance
  • Electrical-system protection
  • Body and equipment clearance
  • Frame structural integrity
  • Required ground clearance

Motorhomes and specialty vehicles may be subject to additional final-stage manufacturing, passenger safety, accessibility, electrical, fuel, and body-construction requirements.

Frame welding, hanger relocation, crossmember modification, or conversion to another suspension should be supported by qualified engineering.

Real World Operating Notes

Many remaining 240AR systems are installed on older motorhomes and specialty vehicles. Identification tags may have been painted over, damaged, or removed during previous repairs.

Motorhome weight can increase significantly through added appliances, generators, batteries, water tanks, slide-outs, storage equipment, and personal cargo. The vehicle should be weighed in its normal travel condition.

Ride-height problems should be corrected before diagnosing axle alignment or driveline vibration. Aligning a vehicle at the wrong ride height may not correct the underlying handling problem.

Track rods are required for all 240AR axles. Operating with worn track-rod bushings can allow the axle to shift sideways and affect handling, tire clearance, and driveline position.

Reyco Granning specifies that the spring beams and air springs must be protected from welding spatter and grinder sparks during nearby chassis repairs.
