Video Transcript for Review of Safe-T-Plus Anti-Sway Bars - Custom Fit Steering Stabilizer Mounting Hardware Kit - ST55MR

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at the Safe-T-Plus Custom Fit Steering Stabilizer with Mounting Hardware Kit. Now, this has been designed to fit your 2000 to 2018 Freightliner XC-Series with air suspension and solid front axle, and then your 2000 to 2005 XC-Series with airbags and a 1 1/2-inch tie rod, and then finally, your 2016 to current XC-Series with V-Ride. Now, on custom fit parts such as this kit, I do recommend going through our Vehicle Fit Guide here at etrailer. Pop in the year, make, and model of your vehicle and answer any other questions that it might have for you, and our fit guide will confirm if this will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you.

Now, this steering stabilizer is designed to make driving your vehicle feel more controlled and less stressful, especially on those longer trips. This is going to help keep your steering centered so you won't have to be constantly correcting your steering wheel when dealing with crosswinds, rough roads, or passing semi-trucks. Now, one of the biggest safety benefits is going to be during a front tire blowout. So, instead of your steering wheel pulling sharply one way or the other, this stabilizer is going to actually help you maintain better control, giving you a better chance to safely guide your vehicle off the road. This is also going to help reduce driver fatigue because you're making fewer steering corrections throughout your trip, you're going to be able to actually relax your grip on your steering wheel and arrive at your destination feeling less worn out.

Now, in case you don't know, a steering stabilizer is one component of a complete handling package that most motor home owners do purchase, which would include a front and rear anti-sway bar. So, if those are available for your vehicle. So, each is going to improve different aspects of handling of your vehicle. For instance, the sway bars are going to help reduce that body roll, improve the overall stability of your vehicle. And then, the steering stabilizer as we've been talking about, it's going to help keep your steering more controlled, more centered, it's going to help reduce that wandering, and it's going to help with, as we mentioned, passing motorists, crosswinds, and road imperfections.

So, working together, they're going to help give you a more confident, a more stable, and a more comfortable driving experience all in all. Now, this stabilizer is built for long-term reliability and durability with a sealed hydraulic design that doesn't require routine maintenance along with a the protective finish to help stand up to the elements. And this is going to be a pretty straightforward installation. It includes everything that you see here. You're going to get your mounting hardware kit.

And this is not going to require any welding or drilling. It's going to be a bolt-on application. Instructions are included. But if you want help with getting this installed, on it's product page, typically found underneath the photo section, we have a link that will take you to our Installer Locator. Click that link, answer the questions that it has for you, and that locator will find an installer in your area that etrailer has partnered with to install this for you. And if you are looking for front and rear anti-sway bars to see if they're available for your vehicle, again, go through our Vehicle Fit Guide and it will point you in the right direction. Again, my name's Andy. Thank you for joining me.
