Craig, great question. The Reflex is a solid unit for lighter rigs, but the # ST95MR is built specifically for heavy diesel pushers like yours (Freightliner Chassis). It uses a hydraulic piston instead of coil springs, giving a smoother on-center feel and more precise centering under the higher steering loads of a Freightliner chassis.

It’s also chassis-tuned; Safe-T-Plus designs each color and bracket kit around a specific steering gear and GVWR, so you get balanced resistance without stiff steering in tight turns.

You’ll notice a calmer wheel and less correction fatigue on long drives - it’s a real upgrade over the Reflex in this weight class.

For your 2016 GMC Canyon 4x4 (and 4x2 models) the Blue Ox base plate kit part #BLU93FR is a confirmed fit and will work well with the Blue Ox Avail tow bar part #BX7420 that you mentioned. This would be a great flat towing setup that would work well…

Answer 6

For a Freightliner chassis the Blue Ox Trucenter you are seeking has been discontinued which is why you don't see that model on our site. For a steering stabilizer compatible with your motorhome, I recommend the Roadmaster Reflex Steering…

The #AL88242 is designed to fit the E-450 and has a slightly different mounting process with different brackets. Since your 2015 Thor Vegas 24.1 is on the E-350 chassis you want to use the #AL88138. Since we do not have a specific fit for the Thor…
