Recommended Steering Stabilizer for 2017 Thor Hurricane 34J Motorhome  

Published 10/13/2017

Question:

I have a 2017 Thor Hurricane 34J and would like to confirm which stabilizer I need.

0

Expert Reply:

Based on my research, your 2017 Thor Hurricane 34J Motorhome, which is built on the F-53 chassis, has a GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) of 22,000 pounds. With this in mind, I recommend the Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer # RM42RR.

This stabilizer features a sturdy steel spring that will keep the vehicle in line by constantly working to maintain its position. It will attach to the steering mechanism on one end and to the chassis undercarriage on the other. The custom mounting brackets and hardware are included.
