The sturdy steel spring on this stabilizer keeps your vehicle in line by constantly working to maintain its position. Mount it between the steering mechanism and the chassis for a tight connection that will minimize wander and correct oversteering.
Features:
A variety of things can make your vehicle veer - crosswinds, uneven pavement, tire blowout. The key to a pleasant, and safe, driving experience is learning how to deal with these situations. Roadmaster's Reflex Steering Stabilizer works to return your vehicle to center when something happens that causes it to swerve or jolt. As a result, you won't have to oversteer in an attempt to stay in line, thus minimizing road fatigue.
The stabilizer attaches to your vehicle's tie rod on one end and to the frame on the other. A heavy-duty steel spring runs the length of the rod, constantly working to keep steering controlled. If you steer your vehicle one way and it gets pulled the opposite way, the spring will stretch momentarily and then quickly pull back to its normal state. If you oversteer your vehicle in the same direction it is already moving, the spring will compress for a moment but then push back out to its prior state. No matter how you steer or how the frame is pushed or pulled, your vehicle will always return to center.

Before installing this stabilizer on our coach you wanted to keep both hands on the wheel due to the drifting around in the lane. After we had it installed, there is no longer a need to use both hands to control the coach and maintain a straight path in our lane.
The part that Amber told me was the correct for my RV does not fit
The spring hits the frame and will not allow the shock to rotate up.
I also would have to rotate the shock spring unscrewing it !
I will be contacting Roadmaster
Just received, not yet installed, buty appears pretty straight forward. All parts included, Anticipate no more than an hour to install. Reviews for the product were excellent and reason I purchased it. Seems RVs on Freightliner XC-S chassis tend to have a little wander issue and requires constant attention when driving. Am looking forward to the relief other RV owners have claimed.
Sales (Brittany K) was excellent help, shipped product same day and I received it two days later. Searching for product on line, etrailer was only one to sell it as a complete kit and they were the least expensive of everyone I checked (six other dealers) and also had free shipping. Plan to make future RV accessory purchases from etrailer.
Have now had this product on our coach for a year and I can honestly say that it's a god send. The Coach handles great and much much more stable than it was out of the box (lol). Not so susceptible to passing trucks or other vehicles. We did have to get longer u-bolts to accommodate the install on our 2019 Berkshire but otherwise, fantastic outcome. Very happy with my purchase. Thank you e-trailer and Roadmaster for a great product.

Still working great as ever. Performs like a champ. Wouldnt go without it. You would think it would be standard equipment.
The best customer service, you don't find that anymore
I installed this stablizer in about an hour. We took our first trip after installation to New Orleans. I feel that this improvement made a great deal of difference in the handling of our 40' coach. Noticed a significant change in the handling with truckers passing and varying road conditions. Would definitely recommend this addition and always the great customer service of etrailer.

Extremely satisfied with this product and ensuing control with sway on motorhome. Thanks! Love products and support from etrailer. Your company is always there to help.
I installed this product in less than an hour. Previous to this install my motor home would find every bump and crevice on the road which would be felt in my steering wheel. Post install my ride is smooth and much less stressful. Thank you!

It worked very well and absorbed much of the road vib. I sold my RV and hope the new owner appreciates it as much as I did.
The install was pretty easy. Your instruction sheet needs to be updated as paragraphs 4 and 6 were not accurate. I suspect the bracket design changed since the instructions were written.
The only issue I had was the tie rod was almost directly over the front nut of the shock mount bracket. I was able to remove the nut with a short socket and extension. But, when I reinstalled the bracket, washer and nut, I could not get the socket off. I had to leave the washer off and then I was able to remove the socket.
I really like the way the RSS improved the steering feel. The wheel feels "tighter" now and I don't get the twitching and jerking I got before when hitting potholes or seams in the roadway. It also reduces the amount of input you have to use on the steering wheel when driving in strong crosswinds or passing semis. Even though my coach is brand new, this was an excellent addition. I would recommend this product to anyone.
The stabilizer worked as advertised. It virtually stopped the proverbial “Semi-Push”
I still had a little drift from side to side on a straight highway so I had the front my end aligned. That didn’t help but then I read a thread online that talked about tire pressures. The writer claimed that pressurizing the tires to RV specs was way too much pressure.
My coach plackard calls for 120# at full load. Adjusting that for actual coach weight I arrived at a pressure of 110# but I still had some drift.
I finally reduced the front tires to 97# and now, with the stabilizer and the correct tire pressure, the coach dropped he’s like a Trailways Bus.
We put 9,000 miles on last summer going coast to coast and
As always product was shipped as promised, installation was 1 1/2 hours with all pieces fitting well. I always use etrailer if possible because I have never been disappointed with shipping and finding the products I need. The Roadmaster steering stabilizer ordered for my class A makes the driving much smoother and with less stress on me, great product. Should have ordered it months ago, thanks again!
Called several RV centers and no one wanted to install the steering stabilizer, so I installed it myself, took about 2 hours to install and properly adjust it for no pulling, made the difference between day and night. No more white knuckle driving, worth
every cent sent on it.
Easy to install. Was helpful on my Allegro Red. Steering was noticeably easier. 18 wheelers causing sway was diminished. I certainly would recommend as a relatively easy fix. Overall my steering improved 75 percent.
The item were out of stock. George J keep me inform of when the item will be back in stock. After the item were back on stock it was shipped and a tracking number was sent to me with a followup. Thank you trailer. Outstanding service.
The Stabilizer was one of the best upgrades I done to my 2007 Tiffin Pheaton. It made a major improvement in the handling on the highway of the bus. It gave me improved confidence of my ability to handle the vehicle in bad conditions. A great investment!
I had a reflex stabilizer on a type A motor home that I traded for this one. Was very satisfied, it did away with the wind sway and the draft of passing trucks, I would recommend it to all with this problem. I have installed it on current Cross Country but have not driven it yet, have no doubt it will also do the same for it.
Helps with the return to center steer, will not help with sway --still get pushed by the big rigs. Makes driving more pleasant because less driver input to keep it between the lines.
Have not yet test drove, Installation was quick and easy also etrailer was very Helpful and professional
Made a big improvement to our Freightliner chassis. It should be standard equipment!

Still working great! Freightliner should provide it.
This product was a definite improvement. We have seen a substantial difference in the handling of our 40' motor home with this addition. The swaying from trucks passing and uneven lanes has been reduced. Less driver stress!
Should of came with my new motor home
Amazing product
So far it seems to be help.

Excellent. Given the number of customers who complain of steering issues, Im underwhelmed Thor doesnt add these to all units before delivery. When you are dealing with a rig which costs more than $150K, what is another $450 when it adds considerable to safety.
