Front Sway Bar and Steering Stabilizer Recommendation for 2011 Winnebago Vista 26P
Question:
Dear Sirs: I am at a loss on my 2011 Winniebago Vista 26P motorhome. The motorhome is great but the ride is like being punished for driving. The motorhome wonders from one side of the lane to the other requiring constant white knuckle corrections. This is amplified when being passed by a simi or a sudden gust of wind. I have put a Blue OX bar on the rear which attaches the differential to the frame, thus preventing sway on the rear of the coach. I need help with the front end. The roll and sway is just so bad while driving. Please give me some ideas on the products you have that will relieve the driving fatigue. Thanks

Expert Reply:
Your 2011 Winniebago Vista 26P is built on a Ford F-53 chassis which unfortunately has a reputation as not being the most pleasant to drive.
Since you already have a rear sway bar the next you will want to replace the front sway bar. For that you would want the part # RM-1139-148 which is a confirmed fit. This will minimize sway and driver fatigue by improving the stability and drivability of your vehicle. Body roll will be greatly improved too.
Then for a steering stabilizer you would want the part # RM-RBK4-RSSA as long as your GVWR is less than 26,000 lbs. If it were more you would want the # RM-RBK22-RSSA.
