04 DSDP,Spartan IFS 1320 Steering

This summer I had the front alignment checked before I put on new front
shocks(Bilstein) and new steering dampers (from Spartan). New ball joints in
2014. All of this has helped with the steering control. Less wandering, less Porpoiseing and a lot easier to drive. I also wanted to install some kind of Steering stabilizer(for a tire blow out, hard side winds,and passing Semi's), such as Safe-T-Plus. Went to their site and found the part number for our Coach. It was a 26-230. Had a hard time finding the part. Finally called Safe-T-Plus and talked to a Technician there. He said I had to remove the new Steering Dampers I just put on cause there was no room to mount their part.

My question is to all the other owners of a 04 DSDP with the IFS 1320, if you installed the Safe-T-Plus, was it worth taking off your Steering Dampers and go with the Safe-T-Plus only? Or did you find a way to keep both units? They really do different thing to the steering control. If you changed to the
Safe-T-Plus, did you use part # 26-230?

Thanks in advance for you help
Joe
