Looks good, seems to work good only on a test drive. It’s on a very clean 1997 36’ f53 Bounder, with tag axle. It already had 1 5/8” sway bars front & rear. It also has the complete Bank package, so it's a pretty sweet old rig. 3563147

I have to say. After installing Koni front shocks a rear track bar now a Front trac bar front I don’t see a big improvement too out way the cost.
I may try a new front sway bar and steering stabilizer but the cost will determine my decision. 3560729

Arrived in a timely manner and was pretty simple to install. 3453811

Easy to install, good thing for youtube, instructions not that good. 3593258

This took 90% of the wonder out of the truck while driving down the road. It is much more predictable to drive now. I wish I had gotten one of these years ago. 3364529

Improved the steering and lessened impact of being passed by Semis on my RV - Kodiak 5500 chassis. 3474217

Massive Improvement with Drivability, Highly recommend 3575682

Installed no problem! Long trip coming up soon I’ll check it out! 3540002

ordered a track bar and it was not available right away so i called the factory and etrailer worked with them to make sure i got one right away, very helpful. usually i get etrailer orders in 2 days and sometimes i get them the next day. great people to deal with and the best prices too. 707466

Haven’t driven RV yet, front axle track rod installed easy and feels heavy duty, can’t wait to take it for a ride. Highly recommend etrailer for parts and their service 1340888

The product is very good. The people are friendly and very nice and very helpful. They even called me and offer their help. I received the product before the delivery date which it was great.I recommend this product and this company to everyone. 845613

Install was very straight forward. Did require a 3/4 impact wrench that I did not have to remove U-bolt on leaf spring. (It's nice to have friends that are truck mechanics). Other than that, it was a piece of cake. Have not had a chance to test drive yet, but hoping this does the trick.

The Roadmaster track bar made a significant difference in how well the front end of our Kodiak RV tracked. The rut following and resistance to returning onto the road from the shoulder, lane changing etc. are greatly improved. This should be used in conjunction with other suspension upgrades such as a rear track bar, upgraded shocks and stiffer rear springs to further enhance the handling and vehicle control. 830343

If you have an gas motorhome this is one of the best investments you can make. I opted for front and rear trac bars along with new shocks . What a world of difference. Absolutely not pushed by wind or passing trucks. After traveling over the country’s really bad roads we had sumo springs installed. They help but the trac bars were by far a better improvement. We traveled 12,000 miles this summer plus 5,000 in a tow car. We crossed the great divide a half dozen times. All with confidence in a 2005 model fleetwood. I couldn’t imagine trying to drive that trip with the original equipment.

Fellow Kodak RV owner recommended this on my first outing, stating the wandering of the front end is horrible where trucks have worn ruts into the interstate. The Roadmaster TruTrac was a game changer. I followed his advice and it was a very easy bolt-in install. My first 1,700 mi trip was comfortable, and I was never fatigued from working to keep the RV from wandering. Etrailer had a great price and has always been great to deal with - highly recommend the Roadmaster TruTrac. 898824

Drove to Maine in June in my used 1999 32' Itasca Sunrise for our first long trip. Felt like I needed to keep both hands on the wheel constantly. Very sloppy handling. Had Davis True Track installed in ME. Drove home to Florida in Sept. Handling MUCH better with very improve sense of control. Very pleased with the product. 228908

Thank you for the opportunity to tell of my experience with the Roadmaster TruTrac V-10B front-axle stabilizer rod.

I have just installed the two brackets but we are not planning on going anywhere until August 20th when we will return from Gloucester MA where we will spend the summer, back to our condo in Florida. Ask me again in September!

So I cannot tell you anything about how the stabilizer works, only installation matters...

The warranty asks for a serial number but I could not find one anywhere.

Paragraph two of the instructions says to install "passenger side bracket" but there is no indication of which part this is. I suggest you note in the parts list that identification instead of simply "Davis Tru-Trac Weld" or "Tru-Trac Weld" so we know for sure which part is which.

The stabilizer bar is actually labeled "REAR TRAC BAR ASSY". I had to call the company to be assured that this part was actually for the front of the vehicle.

It was all I could do to torque the nuts on the drivers-side spring u-bolt to 150 Ft/Lb (the maximum on the scale) with an ordinary 1/2" drive torque wrench. Should I buy a larger torque wrench to achieve the requested 220 Ft/Lb?

The passenger-side bracket was more difficult to get tools into play. My torque wrench would not fit in there. I managed to tighten the three half-inch bolts as tight as I could possibly get them with my 1/2" drive ratchet handle. I will check them all after the first day of use and then from time to time. I do like the nylon insert nuts instead of lock washers to avoid loosing the parts in the case of loosening up.

I have not yet installed the stabilizer bar as I will have to move the rig to flat ground for that in the next few days. The instructions say to measure from the ground to the top of the shock absorbers to make sure the rig is level. This seems unnecessarily cumbersome. Since the top of the shock is hard-connected to the frame then why not just measure from the ground to the bottom of the frame rails? It would be helpful to tell us how close the two measurements should be.

I am looking forward to the added stability the TruTrac cross-bar should add to the rig. The primary purpose of buying this equipment is to eliminate the re-occurrence of the horrible "death wobble" that the Ford F53 motor home chassis is prone to. The first time it happened I was driving the rig home after buying it. The previous owner had read the max pressure on the tire saying 110 psi and had put that pressure into all six tires. The wobble started after a bump at around 40 mph and terrified me. I drove home at around 25 mph in the slow lane. I lowered the pressure to the manufacturer's placard 80 psi and went almost 10K miles without a recurrence. Before starting our current trip I increased tire pressure (all cold tire pressures) to 85 psi to try to get a little more stability. While going through a city in TN in 4 or 5 lanes of 70 mph traffic the "death wobble" struck again. After some heroics we managed to get into a delta where a on-ramp came into the main stream of traffic. This allowed me to get out and check the tire pressures up front. It was in the low 90s. I lowered the pressure to 80 psi and we had no further trouble, but I was determined to do something more positive to prevent the "death wobble" from happening again. So I did some looking around on line and settled on your stabilizer bar. Only time will tell if I have actually banished the "death wobble" for good.

Thank you for your interest in my application.

I ordered this with a roadmaster sway bar and sumo spring kit and it is not compatible in anyway shape or form with the sumo spring kit. Its brackets would occupy the same locations as the Sumo Springs. When I informed them of the issue they offered a refund but minus return shipping cost which in my opinion is unfair as I should have been warned. Beware this kit will not work if you have Sumo Springs on your F53 chasis. 1655639

Wow, it Turned my loussy Lucie in a vert stable ride. No morte White knuckle. It’s now stable and prédicable. Can’t wait to go on a long journey. 1114095

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. 757213

I installed the trac bar myself , every part fit like O.E.M. on the Ford F53 chassis . The only problem was removal of the nuts from the leaf spring shackle , 200 lbs ft torque , required an impact wrench. A test drive felt a bit firmer and more stable than without the bar. I feel your product is well engineered and high quality. Thank you , for a job well done. RET 142769
