Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer with Mounting Brackets for Class A Motor Homes
First, I did have to grind off corner of the plate that mounts under leaf spring bolts. It would not lay flush so I tapered one of the edges where it met the axel a little bit till it laid flush. I did buy a 3/4 inch wrench set but with an rv, it's good to have and will possible allow me to get the 22.5 inch wheels off in an emergency. This with a good solid 3' pipe and I was able to fairly easily break the leaf spring bolts free. I used boards to ensure the fronts tires were fairly straight, laying them alongside the tires and eyeballing to see where they lined up with the back tires which are about 4 inches wider than the front outside width. I mounted the steering stabilizer and took it for a test drive and it was good the first time, no additional adjustments needed. Feels good on the road, good around turns, and even at low speeds around the driveway, I did not notice any extra effort to turn the wheel due to the heavy spring on the stabalizer. Put about 75 miles on it and it feels solid and stable though no high winds or passing semi trucks yet. But my 2007 ford f53 22000 lb chassis under a holiday rambler admiral body has always felt pretty good. Just trying to make better, next up is the new koni evo fsd heavy duty shocks coming today.
I have a class A motorhome, F53. I installed a Roadmaster reflex steering stabilizer, a Roadmaster rear anti-sway bar 1 3/4" diameter, 4 new koni shocks and 6 new tires. Now, it feels well planted on the road. Its a combination. Very happy !

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar - 1-1/2" Diameter
Made a world of difference especially in wind and passing or being passed by large trucks. If you're a handy person you can install it yourself in a couple hours. I did, in the driveway.
I didn’t realize our motorhome had an OEM sway bar already installed which was left in place. Etrailer selected one for us that was heavier and more appropriate for our unit. Instructions were a bit to be desired but once installed made a world of difference. Their staff is very knowledgeable and didn’t try to sell me more than I needed. Thank you Etrailer.

No issues. Significantly helps steering.
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.

Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar - 1-3/4" Diameter
The antisway bar was a great investment. Between Etrailer'S videos and the packaged instructions, the installation was straight forward. Great product.
Each item I have added has helped I started with sumo springs then rear sway brace. Then koni shocks. I added a trac bar and front sway bar. It drives much better I forgot the steering stabilizer. And had the front end aligned each thing I added helped. It drives much better now but I have not towed with it yet that remains to be seen.

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar - 1-1/2" Diameter
The anti sway bar helped a lot, but my Fleetwood could use a little more help. Probably needs the front end too. I installed the model made for coaches a year or two newer and it went on much easier than the unit requiring frame drilling and coil spring recounting. I ordered both to cover myself, didn't open the kit for older chassis and sent it back - for full credit, except for shipping, which is fair. Trailer met each promise - product, dates, and return of the unused unit. 5 stars for service 3 stars for eliminating the sway. ETrailer provided EXCELLENT videos for installation, and did everything they said they would! My wife is happy and I'm her hero. That's always worth 5 stars!
I spoke with Jameson, he understood my issues and recommended 2 stabilizer bars. They were delived on a tight time-frame. These ba4s made all the difference in the handling of my Newmar Baystar Sport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR EXPERTISE!!

The customer service I received from Sara at Etrailer was 1st class service.
Easy installation took me less than 40 minutes from start to finish. Test drive was a “remarkable” difference than before.

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar - 1-3/4" Diameter
I was well pleased with the quality and shipping was unbelievable fast. Thanks very much.
Have only taken a short test drive . But seems better not as much rocking side to side ! Would have been better as far as shipping goes , if the grease was in something else so it did not get broken open ? It gets on everything including the instructions !

Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer with Mounting Brackets for Class A Motor Homes
I found this easy to install however the bracket to hold it onto the steering rod kept slipping. NOT a good bracket design. In addition, the stabilizer only improved the "wondering" by about 30%.
Nick S was GREAT help. He helped me with the right stabilizer for my motor home and had it shipped the very same day. Stabilizer was installed with very little effort and it is making quite a difference in my ability to steer the motor home. I will definitely recommend etrailer to my friends.

Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer with Mounting Brackets for Class A Motor Homes
Excellent setup, road manners are so much better. I don't have to work to keep the truck straight anymore. Installed in less than an hour with just a few basic tools.
This stabilizer made my truck much safer to drive. When pulling a trailer, the truck was difficult to handle. Any line or imperfection in the pavement would lead the truck around and cause it to sway. It now handles much better.

The sumo springs have performed very well and have really helped the ride and handling of my 2018 Thor motorhome. My experience with etrailer.com continues to be exceptional in every way including product installation.
Molly was exceptional,service,and quality of parts 5 stars

Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer w/ Custom Brackets for Class A Motorhomes
Get one, you won't be sorry. I traveled 7250 miles around the US this past summer and the stabilizer performed perfectly keeping the RV from drifting out of lane. This makes driving so much easier. Even in wind gusts the stabilizer was a tremendous aid controlling the RV from lurching left or right. I believe its a good investment.
This is the best item I have ever bought. Totally changed the motorhome steering. Now it’s very easy to drive and steer. Can drive using one hand used to. Love the steering stabilizer.

Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer
Hey RV'rs.... I upgraded from the Roadmaster stabilizer and the difference was phenomenal... Prince Edward county to Key West with minimal steering correcting
This exact center steering stabilizer is excellent. Takes a bit of driving to get used to it but does what it says.

Easy install. After a short test drive it is a definate improvement. Very pleased at this point
The item arrived faster than expected, thanks for that, I’m waiting for the weather to clear up before I can install it myself, thanks again for the help and the support

Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar and TruTrac Rod Kit - 1-5/8" Diameter
The good is that the parts are first class, and it works very well. Even being mechanically inclined, the directions could use an upgrade. Needs more help where the spaces go.
I installed these anti-sway bars front and rear because I was fighting crosswinds and passing semi-trucks, very exhausting driving. Made a huge difference. Our old Newmar (Workhorse) had no sway bars at all.

Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer w/ Custom Brackets for Class A Motorhomes
4 stars based on lack of info and nonease of install. The videos listed here are of professionals with lifts. Ya…..try doing the install on the ground or in gravel, where I bet a lot of motorhomes exist. Anyways it is pretty simple to install but while laying on the ground twisted up try torquing that down! Not fun. I did the “fine” adjustments after install. Uh….couldn’t find the one out of 20+ videos I stumbled upon where a guy said “twist this way and go right….twist this way and go left”. After 6! Crawls under the stupid motorhome it eventually got worse after every adjustment I did. And believe me when I say FINE adjustments. 1/8 of an inch will send you’re steering the complete opposite direction. So to fix this nightmare, I uninstalled the bar mount on drivers side and reinstalled while my wife forced the steering wheel to go where it needed to go. Now I can go in an almost straight line at slow speed. Not sure what it’ll do when I get on the freeway….but I’m sure it won’t let me go careening into another lane like it did before this install….so thanks etrailer!
I'm torn about how this is working for me. I know it was difficult for the installers...very. It certainly keeps my motor home centered, but is also harder to steer otherwise. I installed this and a rear anti-sway bar at the same time.

This installed in less than an hour, 2006 Monaco La Palma Roadmaster Chassis. I used a 1/2 cordless 1100 Ft lb. impact to remove the spring u-bolts, came right off. The rest is as the instructions say. I took for a road test and drives a straighter. etrailer shipped and I had in a couple of days. etrailer is the best for me. Tools for this is 1/2 drive 15/16 deep socket for the axle U Bolts, 3/8 drive 3/4 inch for the shock bolts and a 3/4 open end wrench, and a 3/8 drive 9/16 deep socket for the tie rod U Bolts. Easy to do yourself.
Thanks for the fast shipment of this order -- This stablizer was installed on a 07, Monaco Camelot, with a Dana Axle, & air bags -- Your web site states that the RBK6 will not fit a Dana axle -- I called Roadmaster, & they said it will fit, & it does --The The steering stablizer install was not a tough job at all -- The only problem was loosening the nuts that hold the axle, & the bolts not being long enough to add the bracket -- I do have air tools, & I heated the nuts with a plumbers tourch -- It took longer to free the the nuts, that it took to do the rest of the install -- On the test drive, no adjustment was needed -- Very pleased from order to install -- William Willard

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar - 1-1/2" Diameter
Did not fit our 2014 Sunseeker with air bags. It contacts the rear differential. We contacted etrailer and right away they emailed us a label to return the item, and placed an order for a Hellwig anti sway bar which fit perfectly. They're customer support is top notch.
Fairly easy install. Drilling the hole in the frame was decent started with a 17/64 pilot hole then the 17/32 final hole. Take your time and let the drill do the work. Do be aware of the hole placement on the drivers side as there are brake lines and wiring there.

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar - 1-1/2" Diameter
Everything pretty much fit like it should. Seemed to reduce the heavy rocking when You make sudden turns or coming out of a parking lot where the road is at a different level.
Wow, This sway bar is big, heavy, beefy and strong. I saw all the great reviews but was still surprised when I got it. Installation was straight forward but I did have to have a mechanic shop jack the RV up and take the huge bolts of the U-bolts because my impact wrench was not strong enough. I've only put a few mines on it since I installed it but I have already noticed a difference.

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar - 1-5/8" Diameter
Sway bar operates fine. However, the installation took over 10 hours due to rivets on the leaf springer hangers vs. bolts and with 80gallon fuel tank between the frame Camping World had real issues grinding the rivets and replacing them with bolts! In 2008 apparently GM used two methods to install leaf spring hangers. Even with advance research this was not well documented as a consideration and one roadmaster had limited knowledge of when I encountered the problem. etrailer did not stand behind this issue they left me to resolve and did not offer a return and credit. I have bought from etrailer prior with good results including best price match guarantee however have not purchased anything from them since this issue!
Can't recommend Enough...combined with front sway bar kit turned our Chevy Kodiak 5500 motorhome into a Corvette..night and day difference...can't believe I drove all those miles without one...
What our customers are saying:
"very easy to shop"
