Features to know about

Better Highway Control: Gas Spring Stabilizer Keeps You Centered

Nothing throws off confidence faster than wandering steering or constant wheel correction. The Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer uses a nitrogen-charged tandem gas spring that keeps the steering centered and responsive. It applies force right when you need it, stopping unwanted movement before it starts. The result is steady, predictable tracking through crosswinds, ruts, and uneven roads.

Less Fatigue on Long Drives: Smooth, Predictable Steering Feel

Hours behind the wheel can wear you down when the vehicle drifts or follows every groove in the pavement. This stabilizer takes the fight out of steering by maintaining straight-line control and reducing the need for constant adjustment. It helps keep the vehicle stable through passing trucks, gusty wind, and rough surfaces so the drive feels calmer and less tiring.

Easy Bolt-On Setup: No Drilling or Welding Needed

Installing stability shouldn’t mean tearing into the chassis. This unit mounts directly using factory axle bracket holes on one end and the tie-rod location on the other. With no welding or drilling required, it’s a straightforward bolt-on upgrade. Just remember that the custom mounting brackets are sold separately.

Built to Last: Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Construction

This stabilizer isn’t just about smoother steering—it’s built for the long haul. The heavy-duty stainless steel body resists corrosion and wear, keeping performance consistent over time. With a spring length of 21" measured center-to-center, it’s engineered for strength and durability that match its precision handling benefits.

by:

This it the second Roadmaster stabilizer I have purchased from Etrailer. Other was for our older 2011 motorhome and after having it I did not want to drive without 1. This is different than prior unit- big factor is so much lighter and easy to adjust, so far working perfectly…



by:

I stopped short of 5 stars because the instructions could be a lot clearer.



by:

Easy to install if you have the right tools, 3/4" torque wrench etc. Seems to be doing the job on smooth roads, our roads are terribly rutted and lots of frost heaves. Did not have to adjust after install.



by:

I installed the exact center myself. It took me about an hour due to a couple rusty bolts. Test Robin on some side roads and the main road today and I love it. Keeps me on the lane. I don’t have to play the wheel back-and-forth constantly. It doesn’t pop back to center as quuck as I thought it would, but maybe I just gotta get used to it. Definitely an improvement for a long trip.



by:

The motorhome drives so much easier now. I would recommend this if your on the fence.



by:

This has improved the steering significantly for our 2021 Jayco Redhawk 25R! It's almost incredible how much better it is. Can now hold the steering with one hand and does not pull in one direction. Huge improvement!



by:

Supper easy install takes about 1 1/2 hours and most definitely made a difference in the steering input and holding the road is definitely improved.



by:

I will have to wait until next year to install the stabilizer. I had to have the kingpins replaced in the Ford front end at 13,500 miles because parts were left out at the factory. We were not able to use the motorhome much this year.



by:

Made a world of difference. Installed on a Class C RV and was a marked improvement over the anemic OEM “steering stabilizer.” Very little adjustment required.



by:

Joshua did a great job on the phone with me.
The product that I bought seems to be high quality.



by:

Super easy install on a 2019 Leprechaun 319MB ,Class C RV. Hardest part was taking off the old hardware. Followed the instructions and test drove at 60mph and it drove totally straight and did not have to make any micro adjustments. A very well made product.



by:

Best investment I have made on this Motorhome. So much easier to drive and keep in it's lane.



by:

I had the road master exact center steering stabilizer installed on my RV and tried it out and it was perfect driving and maintaining position on the road way with out drifting. Although my tow vehicle was not connected I thought it felt good without out it a believe it will be fine.



by:

We installed the Roadmaster steering stabilizer on our 2018 Thor Chateau 24F motorhome. The drifting issue we'd experienced was significantly improved making driving easier and less stressful.



by:

Great product! My installer Martins Auto Tech did a fantastic job!!! Jeff Martin the owner took the extra time to make sure everything was aligned correctly and took the time to explain why he liked the product we chose from etrailer! If i ever needed or will need any work done to my RV. I would use etrailer and Jeff Martins Auto Tech in Hollywood Maryland! Btw your source page led us to Martins Auto Tech with great reviews! Thank you again!

This one of the best if not the best exact center steering stabilizer on the market. Steering my 38 foot class A gas motorhome is simply a breeze. I use to fight my steering wheel to keep my motorhome straight on every type of road. I use to brace and prepare to input multiple steering corrections whenever a Semi truck was about to pass me. With my exact center steering stabilizer installed plus the addition of air bags (front and rear) driving my motorhome is now as easy as driving my F-150 super duty. The exact center steering stabilizer alone improved all of the white knuckle constant steering adjustments i was experiencing. The air bags prevent the side to side movements from cross winds and when a Semi truck passes my motorhome. The vast improvement is the same with or without the toad. This was by far the most cost effective, easily installed, and immediate improvement I have made to my 2015 Coachmen Encounter 37LS Motorhome.



by:

First road trip with our new Integra Odyssey from New York to Key West. It was a nightmare driving this thing down south! Ordered this Roadmaster and had it shipped to my friend's house in Florida. We installed it in about an hour and it is a night and day difference. Sway is almost completely gone and you can let go of the wheel and it stays centered. No more white knuckle driving!



by:

Item arrived quickly the video on the site actually helped with the installation and it was very simple, installation is on a 2023 Nexus Wraith 34w on the international MV 670 chassis



by:

The Exact Center Stabilizer itself is very good. The bracket that was sent only worked on one side of vehicle. Instruction say it is universal for either side mounting. That is incorrect for the kit I received. The stabilizer itself would have fit better on my 2022 F53 if it were about 2 inches longer.

These have made a HUGE difference in how my class A RV drives, kinda tricky getting the alignment right, but once you do it’s great

@Neil Yes, it is amazing how much these suspension enhancements help keep things straight and stable, helps you get rid of those white knuckles Neil! Have you done any other upgrades to get things dialed in how you want them?
