Question:
I have a 2016 Jayco Alante 26x Motor Home that is sitting on a 2015 Ford F53 Chassis 16k GVW. I have terrible control of the vehicle as it swerves out from underneath me and have been told that Blue OX makes a really nice product for this. Can you tell me which one I need and why would I would go with the Tiger Trac vs the steering stabilizer? Thanks in advance

Expert Reply:
The most effective modification you can make to an RV to help with stability is a rear sway bar. For that you would want the part # RM-1139-143 for your 2015 Ford F53 Chassis. This will greatly reduce sway, body roll, and weight transfer.
If that doesn't get you the handling you are looking for the front sway bar would be next. For that you would want the part # RM-1139-148. This will also reduce sway, body roll and weight transfer.
Steering stabilizers are great too for helping to reduce problems with oversteering and wandering. For that you would want the part # RM-RBK4-RSSA. If you did all three of these you would have an excellent handing RV!
