from what i understand, when in travel mode (engine running) your should be 12" from the ground to the bottom of the coach when measured directly in back of the front wheels and directly in front of the rear.

that will tell you to start if you are too high or low anywhere. i dont know the tolerances for sure but i would say plus or minus 1/2" or so.

that is what i used on mine to adjust the travel height valves. mine is older, but i believe it is the same for all coaches of our vintage.

maybe richard can confirm.

mine has never done what you are saying.

did you put new koni shocks in? they are adjustable and i would probably start there(read michaels post below, i agree with him, the balance of the tires could be suspect). also, a statement of the obvious, but make sure you have the right air pressure in each tire. each tire does have a different stiffness or ride but i wouldnt think it would be enough to do what you are describing.

i am sure others will pipe in here too.
