"And this one has the New Front End" Have heard this twice, on 05 models. Looking at an 03 and an 05, so I need to know what the difference in the front end is. I can't seem to find any info anyplace, so turning to the POG experts! Thanks!

If you are comparing an XLII,the 05(04 shell) will have an 18,000 LB front axle with 365 tires compared to a(01-03 shell) 17,200 LB with 315 tires.There are many other parts that have also been upgraded including the steering box and the Alcoa Wheels,we could do a parts search and we would find many other parts that Prevost changed in order to increase the weight rating.The 04 shell has a totally different feel compared to the 03 shell,I believe that it is mostly due to the larger tires.I don't know when Prevost increased the size of the air lines to the air bags but I think that it was around the 04 shell,this helped the coach in the corners respond to leans quicker,help me someone with the year this changed.
