Check Your Bushings

[Abnmarine]

I bought my RV back in December and immediately noticed how much it swayed. I'd never driven a Class A before so I just assumed it was due to being top heavy. Coach had 39k miles on the 1999 F-53 chassis. A couple of weekends ago when installing the exhaust I noticed the rear swaybar bushings missing. I knew this wasn't right so I ordered new bushings and just installed them. It rides so much better now and it only took me 10 minutes with the air tools.

Ain't that the truth! I've been spending the last few weekends doing a lot of little things that just make the thing that much better.

I didn't becuase my chassis is a 1999. I tried contacting him without success since I'd rather have poly bushings. I ended up ordering them from the Ford dealership.
