When I had my Freedom Elite 26 HE there was a very noticeable lean to the curbside. Even more noticeable when the one slide (which was on that side) was extended. I never checked but I suspect it was worse still when we were in bed (it was a bed slide). Aside from leaving us sleeping a bit head down it was not a problem. I asked my trusted truck suspension guy about it and he said it’s caused by having more weight on the left side (duh!) and that obviously was true since most everything in the coach was on that side (slide, generator, water tank, water heater, kitchen, propane tank). He assured me it isn’t actually a problem beyond looking a bit odd. He offered to fix it for about $100 by adding a small helper spring on the left but, of course it wouldn’t change anything on the chassis only how the box sat on the chassis. I did sometimes put an extra leveling block on the left side when setting up so we wouldn’t be sleeping in a trendeleburg position. BTW after all this I started noticing that lots of RVs list a bit. I just hadn’t noticed until it was mine.
