Minimize sway and driver fatigue by improving the stability and driveability of your vehicle. The bar on this sturdy, effective anti-sway system mounts to the rear axle and to the frame to balance weight transfer and reduce body roll.
Features:
Specs:
The Roadmaster anti-sway bar does for side-to-side movement what a good pair of shocks does for up-and-down motion. You will notice a marked improvement in your vehicle's stability as the bar works to balance weight transfer and reduce body roll. The anti-sway bar acts as a link between your vehicle's frame and its rear axle, using the axle as a brace to more effectively balance the shifting weight of your vehicle as you maneuver it. Lubricated bushings allow just enough pivot and rotation to compensate for the pressure placed on one side of your vehicle when it goes into sudden maneuvers, hits crosswinds or encounters shifting weights.
Superior Construction
The Roadmaster anti-sway bar is made of 4140 chromoly, a chromium and molybdenum steel alloy. This type of steel is considerably harder and stronger than the standard 1020 steel that is typically used in anti-sway applications. In addition, the larger diameter of the bar increases its torsional roll stiffness. The result is a bar that is not only stronger than the competition, but also nearly 30 percent better at resisting sway. The polyurethane bushings and grommets used at the attachment points are durable yet flexible, ensuring that the system is neither so rigid nor so malleable that it becomes ineffective.

Speaker 1: Today we're gonna be taking a look at Roadmaster's Line of Rear Anti-Sway Bars for motorhomes. You want to refer to our fit guide to find the appropriate sway bar for your vehicle.The large size and heavy weight associated with motorhomes can cause drastic amounts of sway when driving down the road. To help create a safer ride, and reduce driver fatigue, we can minimize the sway by adding an additional rear sway bar. So when making basic maneuvers or sharp turns, you'll minimize the risk of a rollover.Also, when driving on windy days, on uneven pavement, you can get a sway affect going back and forth, and you'll have to compensate for that with the steering wheel to maintain and safe, straight path.This additional bar will help reduce that amount of sway, making it easier to maintain control of your vehicle and reduce vehicle fatigue, 'cause you're not having to compensate as much.The Polyurethane Bushings will help dampen road vibrations, and additionally stand up to corrosive road oils, salts, and UV rays. The bar is made up of 4140 chrome steel, where most factory bars are only made of a lower strength, 1020 steel.And to maximize your reduction of sway, Roadmaster recommends you also get a front anti-sway bar. Using our fit guide at etrailer.com you can pick out the appropriate rear and front end anti-sway bars for your motorhome.Now we'll take our anti-sway bars out on our test course.
When we go into our alternating bumps, you can instantly feel a difference in the amount of sway. It's a lot more stable side to side then it was before, making it much easier to maintain control of the steering wheel.And then we'll head onto our straight bumps. When we hit those, there's a definite difference in how much forward and back movement than we had before. It's definitely a more comfortable ride than what we had. And again, it's easier to maintain control of the steering wheel.And now we'll head onto our slalom where we can really test our the sway capabilities.
So if we have some evasive maneuvers, how our motorhome would react. And it's a massive difference. When turning, there's hardly any sway. I feel much more confidence taking sharp, evasive turns.Our customer David S purchased both front and rear Roadmaster anti-sway bars, and had this to say."I installed front and rear sway bars on my 2006 Itasca Suncruiser after making a winter trip to Florida from Ohio. We made a return trip this past winter, through the smoky mountains etcetera.
The improvement in handling was so noticeable, my wife noticed it from the passenger seat. I highly recommend both of these products. I have a workhorse w24 chassis. Crosswinds and semi-push was very minimal. One handed driving in most situations in the norm now, and driver fatigue was minimal.
Driving the coach is much more enjoyable."And that completes our look at Roadmaster's line of rear anti-sway bars for motorhomes.

Minimize sway and driver fatigue by improving the stability and driveability of your vehicle. The bar on this sturdy, effective anti-sway system mounts to the rear axle and to the frame to balance weight transfer and reduce body roll.I ordered the sway bar on Thursday 8/15/2013 and received it on Thursday 8/22. That was very quick shipping for something as heavy as the kit. Price was the lowest I could find on the net. The list price is $980.00 found some places charge around $100.00 less then list plus shipping. Saved a lot by buying from etrailer.com. What surprised me was that etrailer.com was able to ship it right away, when I talked to Roadmaster they said the kit was out of stock and would be two to three week before it would be shipped, was told the samething by other's I checked with. Good experience shopping at etreailer.com, will be back. 96569
After over a year the sway bar is still the best investmentupgrade I made to the F53 to eliminate the tailwag of a motorhome with a long overhang. Handles great in side winds and on winding roads. The sway bar is well worth the cost and etrailer has the best price with free shipping.
Chuck B - 02/24/2015I bought this kit with the intention of installing myself, but a quick review of the instructions convinced me to take it in to a shop instead. The installation is not particularly difficult, but was facilitated by some tools that I simply didn't have. In particular, you'll need a BIG torque wrench to retorque the U-bolts, and on a lesser difficulty level, you'll need a very compact drill and stubby bit to install the frame brackets. I could not get a straight path to the correct location with my drill. It took the shop less than an hour, and was probably much simpler for them since they could put the vehicle on a lift. Otherwise, no surprises. The install could be completed by a home mechanic, but would require at least one somewhat specialized tool - a torque wrench rated to around 400 ft-lbs. The Roadmaster instructions suggest reusing the old U-bolts if they are long enough. I called a different source for new U-bolts, and the tech there suggested that, whether the old bolts fit or not, I should probably purchase new bolts. Apparently suspension U-bolts are threaded in such a manner that they are not intended to be reused. News to me. 224317
I purchased a 2000 Itasca 35U on the Ford Chassis last fall. On the 250 mile drive home on the Coquihalla Hwy in BC Canada ( highway thru hell ) I was white knuckled and afraid this was not ever going to be enjoyable or safe drive. Did I waste my money? No. With a little research I found what I hoped would save my dream of hitting the road in this motor home. I found etrailer on line and they had everything I wanted and at the best price I could find anywhere. I purchased the Roadmaster Front and Rear Anti-Sway bars for this Ford chassis and replaced all four shocks. The " Roadmaster Products" transformed the drive better than I could expect or ask for. It feels safe and solid on the road! I am so thankfull. etrailer earned my business and trust. If you are looking to feel safer and more in control in your motorhome, buy this package! I deserved to enjoy a safe and stress free ride and so do you. In conclusion, etrailer and their Roadmaster products are a must for this motorhome. 587694
Great service. Shipped UPS 3 days. Arrived yesterday. Some of the packaging could be better, but overall I'm very happy. Haven't installed yet, I'll post some pictures of them later. Hopefully they will improve the ride/driving in my F53 chassis motorhome as much as Roadmaster claims. 566799
Bought this a year ago. Arrived promptly. Installed with no real problems. I had to get a larger torque wrench to get the bolts tightened to specs. 5000 miles later, I have really enjoyed the improved handling. I also installed the front sway bar. I would highly recommend this to anyone. 390801
I received but not installed .I will get back with you with pics and review in a few months after I travel some. Order was received and shipping was spot on. great job! 363210
the product is great and has made driving easier Install was a snap
ROY J - 04/05/2018I installed the 1-3/4" sway bar kit. I have a 38' coach so wanted all the help I could get. Thus far the improvements to the handling have been very very welcomed. It's now a rarity that that I encounter any sway or push from passing trucks and barely noticeable sway from strong crosswinds. Now I don.t have to fight the coach constantly. Driving is much more relaxed. 360941
What a complete difference this made on my Class A motorhome. At highway speed, I am no longer pushed aside by the big rigs. The coach tracks straight a whole lot better, and body roll is improved. Installed it myself, with help from a buddy? Highly recommend this sway bar! This is my second purchase from etrailer. Both flawless, with quick shipping. 322342
It has significantly helped with sway of the coach. I am looking to install next year front steering control for additional safety. Etrailer is a great source to purchase RV products. 316485
Easy to install, but of questionable value. Reduction in sway was perceptible, but in the end it resulted in only modest improvement. 248522
I bought both front and rear anti-sway bars for my 2015 Forest River Georgetown 364. After over 10K miles, I still say the improvement is only modest. It wasnt until adding Sumo Springs that I saw a significant improvement.
Vince - 05/05/2017Good price , got it fast that = happy customer . The sway control was easy to install drilling the frame takes a good sharp drill bit . The only problem I had was when I install the bar I install it upside down witch make it hit . When I called RoadMaster after a bit they told me to flip the bar over . I told them in the instructions they only say to install bar , no this side up or this side down so I put it with the RoadMaster name up . He said there was a running joke if the label was down it probably was rite . NO JOKE TO ME . 204092

Installed on MB Sprinter 3500 RV. Corrected sway and yaw when being passed by big rigs. Install directions were confusing. Called Roadmaster, they sent better instructions and talked with installer and solved the issue. 643712

This thing changed the handling of my RV significantly. It was like going from a horse and buggy to a sports car! It truly made a huge difference in the wind, rough roads, crossing parking lot aprons and cornering. It's worth the money to make the upgrade and Etrailer did an excellent job on the install! 638776
Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
I purchased this part because of the rocking on my 2011 Tiifen 34TGA built on the Ford F53 frame. After searching I found this on etrailer and I have to say the video and customer support from etrailer is outstanding. The part came quickly. The install is straight forward as the video shows but be prepared for some hard work. Getting the bolts off the frame after years on the road requires a lot of muscle, my 12 gal compressor and Harbor Freight air wrench was not upto the task. You will need a torque wrench that goes upto the 300 ft/lbs required for the plate install. We had to use our legs to get to 300. After installing I took a long test drive and the difference in handling is amazing. Much less rocking and more stable. I would recommend this anti-sway bar to anyone with this Ford frame. 509803
After a year of use the product is still rock solid and keeping my unit from rockin and rollin on the highway and local roads. I still recommend this for your MH on a the Ford F53 chassis.
Mark S - 05/18/2019Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
The package arrived in a timely manner, just as promised. The installation went as described in the instructions and everything fit well. It improved the handling quite a bit. I already had installed “Sumo Springs” last year (worked great) and the sway bar controlles the sway even more. One thing I can add is, get a long 1/2” drill bit (8” long) to help with drilling the front bracket holes. The drill chuck on my drill, hit the link tabs, causing me to drill at a slight angle (horizontal holes). The biggest problem I encountered is that the bar contacts the exhaust pipe (1/4” gap) and makes noise when driving (see photos) . I have a diesel and the exhaust pipe is about 3” in diameter, which doesn’t help. I’m trying to figure out how to resolve this issue. I will update when I do. 508714
When the anti-sway bar is installed, it is in a set position, but because the exhaust uses rubber isolators that suspend it from the exhaust hangers, the actual position of the exhaust pipe can vary a bit. The good news is that the positioning of the exhaust can be modified a little bit by gently bending the exhaust hangers. If that doesnt work, you can go to a muffler shop and have the exhaust hangers relocated fairly inexpensively.

Mike L - 05/15/2018It should be a factory option. It controls the sway like I hoped it would. No issues one year later.

Installed the new sway bars and the sumo springs and the handling is vastly better than it was before-- well worth the investment-- thanks 605053
Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
After installing this front and rear sway bar my RV, it handled much better when in windy conditions and being passed by large trucks. The front sway bar install was very easy. The rear sway bar was much tougher and ultimately I had to have Camping World install that one. It took them about an hour and half to install just the rear sway bar. This was installed on a 2014 Chevy express 4500 frame. 336983

Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
I purchased this kit and the Roadmaster rear anti-sway bar kit for installation on my 2015 Fleetwood Flair, 26-foot. Before purchasing, I called Roadmaster to make sure this kit could be installed on my small RV, as they make smaller kits for smaller RVs. They indicated it could be installed, and I'm glad I went with the heavier kit. The install took maybe an hour, with the only glitch being some difficulty getting the poly bushings and brackets over the new bar. I called Roadmaster, and the tech noted that the brackets DID look to small, but with some jiggling and finesse, the bolts should fit, and they did. My only irritation with this, and the rear anti-sway bar kit, is that the Roadmaster instructions do not provide ANY torque specifications for bolts to be replaced, either Ford F53, or kit specific, so be prepared to make some calls or go on an Internet search to find the right torque specs. 224319

Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
After purchasing a 2017 Winnebago Sunova 36 Z, I realized there were several handling issues that needed to be dealt with to make the drive more comfortable. I researched and then asked the experts at etrailer to narrow down part numbers appropriate to my F53 chassis. With their guidance, I purchased "sumo- springs" front and rear, a "Roadmaster" steering stabilizer, and finally the "Roadmaster" rear sway bar. The addition of these parts has made the coach far more comfortable to drive. Not only does e trailer provide great assistance ordering coach-specific parts, but they provide awesome installation videos that are a great help. Thanks etrailer!! 522622

Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
I thank Cathy T great help she gave me. I installed the front and back anti sway bars on my 2016 George Town Motorhome. It has the ford f-53 chassis and a Dana 150 rear end. I use road master RM-1139-145 on the rear and RM-1139-140 on the front. Thanks to Cathy T she set me up with the right parts. I don't have any more body roll and the 18 wheelers bearly push me over now. If not at all. The front bar also cut down on wheel pounding. I have a much smother ride. I also have the road master reflex steering stabilizer Rm-BK9-RSSA. 293767

Great customer service from purchase to delivery. Kept informed all the way by George with fast shipping. Sway bar was quick and easy to install on my 2018 Windsport, about 1 1/2 hours by myself. Considerably heavier than original, helps reduce sway as advertised. Great experience with company would purchase other items in future. 483047
Sway bars are still working great. Would not have another RV without them.

Winnebago vista 08. I believe this improvement was the least productive in improving my ford F53 chassis. My existing bar was already or close to the new bar diameter. The install was quick. Delivery was quick. Pricing was ok but they exceeded in having all three items for my rig. 406453

Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
While not the transcendent experience some of the other users had, this did make a noticeable difference. My star rating represents a product doing exactly what it was supposed / advertised to do. I was told the rear anti sway-bar would eliminate 65% of the movement. And that is an accurate description of the improvement. It was most noticeable on uneven roads and highway ramps. When the coach would have rolled 3-4 times, it's now 1 time. And, on long sustained curves the degree of roll is less. I paid to have it installed. After looking at it installed, it would have been easy to do on my own. I recommend the anti sway-bar for anyone looking to reduce body roll. 443092
Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
2017 E-450 Class C RV. I just received the road master front anti-sway bar: RM-1139-176, rear anti-sway bar:RM-1139-147and steering stabilizer: RM-RBK24-RSSC . I unboxed everything and Wow! what a difference compared to the other items. My son and I decided to go ahead and install the steering stabilizer- RM-RBK24-RSSC and it took us right at an hour. we would stop and watch the e-trailer video to make sure we were doing a proper assembly. It is a very helpful tutorial. The only concern I have is how close the tie-rod end of the steering stabilizer is to the radiator hose. It looks like it could come in contact. What we are going to try is to get a old radiator hose and cut a section out of it and wrap around the area where the contact could occur. I will post an update when we get the sway bars installed 346938

Installed easily in about 30 minutes. I took it for a test drive in a 35mph crosswind and it seemed to handle great but I am anxious to take it on the freeway. My only suggestion is that Etrailer list measurements with the product description because the front sway bar that my motorhome called for didn't fit and I had to return it and get a different one. 359473
Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
Good anti-sway bar. Installation was made difficult by being unable to easily remove the OEM anti-sway bar. Although this item was intended to go on a near-new 2015 motorhome, the original retaining bolts were very difficult to remove. However, installation of the RM 1139-140 was relatively easy and completed in about an hour by one person. If two people did the task, it could be done in half that time. The only disappointment, and it was significant, is that there was no mention of torque values for the mounting bolts. 223089
After a year of use over about 8,000 miles, I have to say the improvement they made are moderate at best even considering I put them on the front and back.

Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
I ordered both the Front and Rear anti-sway bar upgrade kits. The install on my 2016 E450 was quite simple, and accomplished easily in my driveway. The kit for the front was a simple remove and replace the OEM bar. The rear kit required drilling two holes to accomodate new mounting points. Other than that, it was also simply a matter of removing a few bolts, and replacing the factory bar. Some minor nits associated with the kits. The washers included in the kit for the rear didn't fit the bolts, also included in the kit. And, the instructions for the front kit didn't include torque specs for the bolts. A quick trip to the local hardware store, and a call to Roadmaster tech support solved the respective problems. Oddly, the Roadmaster tech guy read me THEIR instruction over the phone, and they DID include the necessary specs. I've intalled these kits on two different motor homes now. They work GREAT, and I highly recommend them if you're towing and it feels like the vehicle has a bit more roll than you like. HOWEVER, I would note that the difficulty of installation can vary widely. If you're planning to install yourself, I highly recommend downloading the instructions in advance, and crawling under your vehicle to check on accessibility. For the E450 kit, you'll have to be able to get under there with a drill, and not drill through any cables/lines that may run along the frame rails. You'll also have to be able to get a (typically somewhat large) torque wrench up in there. My experience suggests this can be nearly impossible on some vehicles without access to a grease pit or lift. Good luck! 302768
Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
Two reviews - 1 for the product. 1 for etrailer. Product: Prior to purchasing this front sway bar, the corresponding rear sway bar, and the reflex steering stabilizer, driving our Thor FE30 was frequently a white knuckle experience. Our journey has frequently taken us on I-40 and I-10. Both roads are subject to high cross winds. Additionally, there is heavy semi-truck traffic on these Interstates. Our RV was difficult to control in both of these situations. Frequently we were pushed outside of our lane. The installation was super easy on all of the components thanks to the etrailer videos. I was concerned about my drill being able to fit into the tight space to drill the holes necessary for the rear sway bar. I bought stubby drill bits and that worked perfectly. I did not even need to lift the RV off the ground for any of the components. So far I have taken the RV on I35 twice. It was quite windy both times. It was like driving a completely different RV. No wandering out of the lane. The steering felt much more in control. etrailer: This is the second purchase that I have made from etrailer. Both experiences have been fantastic. Both times I contacted etrailer to make sure that I was getting the correct parts and all of the necessary components. Christina J helped me with the suspension and did a great job. The product reviews and installation videos are fantastic. I will continue to be an etrailer customer/fan. 475335

Fit and finish are excellent, good work. This should minimize sway far better than the factory bar. I am hoping that it will handle more like a sports car or the 3500 RAM LONG HORN that it is replacing. 398607

Review from a similar Roadmaster Sway Bar with Bushing Kit in Anti-Sway Bars
I received my front anti sway bar (RM-1139-140) around noon on the day it was promised. The package was undamaged and all parts were contained within. After lunch I installed the bar in less than 30 minutes, which included the removal of the factory bar. I installed it by myself from the ground. Simple install although I did deviate some from the instructions to make it easier for me as the bar is heavy. Instructions say to attach the bar to the axle with the bushings and saddle clamps first, then bolt the endlinks. Instead I bolted the endlinks first then simply swung/rotated the bar to the axle and attached with the saddle clamps. I did not have to lift the heavy bar to the axle as the weight was already supported by the endlinks. Easier if doing the install alone in my opinion. About a week prior I had installed a Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer ( RSSA-RBK9). These 2 items greatly improved the steering and sway problems which were extremely bad in my 2013 Winnebago Vista 26HE. So bad that I considered the drive extremely stressful and dangerous. With these 2 parts added the drive is now 80 to 90 per cent improved. Very happy. 263320

The trial run proved to be very satisfactory. The product delivered a stable ride and in a cross wind was very effective in keeping the unit from swaying. Very comfortable drive. 529530

Upgrade almost complete on my E450 Quantum LF31. Not hard to install the items. Only have the rear sway bar next month and upgrade will be complete. I also have air bags on the back which helped with the weigh transfer on the unit. 486354

We received the product earlier than expected, which was a good thing. After watching the videos on how to install the rear sway bar and front steering stabilizer i'm ready to make this easy install (according to the videos). Now I'm not a gearhead or mechanic but I know my way around tools. The first problem I encountered with both products, which the videos just skim over, is taking out the existing nuts and bolts that are rusted together. This task requires an impact tool connected to a 50 gallon air compressor that will supply a constant 90 psi at the tool. The bottom installation line is, if you're not already geared for this type of work, send it out. The product should have 5 stars but because of the missing info in the instructions I give it a 3. 569765
