Question:
2016 Newmar BayStar 3518 - Im the third owner. Coach is all the road, bounce, sway, etc. You name it I got it. Want to tame this beast and make the driving experience a joy not a fight, Thought about a Safety + Steer system, rear sway bars and new shocks. Looking for recommendations and help - Please. TIA!

Hey Tony,
We unfortunately don't offer any steering stabilizers under the Safety Plus brand but we do offer some from Roadmaster that will definitely improve your handling and ride quality. For the stabilizer you'll need the Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer # RM42RR.
For the anti-sway bars you'll need the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-149 (1-5/8" thick) and Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148 (1-3/4" thick). Make sure you measure the diameter of your current anti-sway bars to ensure that these are thicker. The thicker the bar the better it can fight body roll and sway.
We don't currently any shock systems for your motorhome but we do offer jounce springs that can help prevent side-to-side sway and cushion your ride so you won't feel as many bumps in the road. For this you would need the SumoSprings Rebel # SSF-170-40-2 for the front axle and the SumoSprings Maxim # SSR-187-40-1 for the rear axle.
I've attached some installation videos below incase you plan on doing this yourself. If you have any other questions just let me know and I'd be happy to help.

Thanks. Interested in the systems you mentioned, also looking at rear stabilizers as well. Coach is factory setup, F53 frame with no mods.
