Brazel's RV Performance is proud to announce that it is running a Summer Special on front and rear UltraTrac Trac Bars for the following chassis model's: - Workhorse W-18, W-20, W-22 & W-24
- Workhorse P-32
- Chevrolet Kodiak 5500
- Ford F-53
- Ford E-350 & E-450

Toll Free: 877-786-1576 mike@brazelsrv.com chris@brazelsrv.com jon@brazelsrv.com www.brazelsrv.com The UltraTrac Rear Trac Bar improves steering by locking the rear axle to the frame. Eliminating "Tail-Wagging the Dog." Sometimes more pronounced with excessive overhang or when towing a car. "Tail-Wagging the Dog" occurs when the rear end of the coach tends to sway or slip to one side or the other. Making sudden lane changes or windy conditions often produce this problem. The UltraTrac Front Trac Bar will help correct "rut tracking." This happens when the coach follows the grooves worn in the road or where ridges are created when an asphalt surface meets a concrete road surface. The coach will want to continue in the direction of the ridge or groove and it is difficult to correct or change the path of the coach. The UltraTrac Front Trac Bar "locks" the front axle to the frame to give you a more positive and precise control over the steering.

the rear trac bar is the one to be sure you do.
I'd also suggest that you do it FIRST and before any other work...
even the repair of worn parts <-- slight hyperbole

There's no need to ask .... "Where's the beef!" | |

Driver,
Do you have one on your coach? If so, how does it feel on your coach?

I found Mike Bronzini (Brazel's RV) was a big help by explaining to me the dynamics of a leaf spring suspension and how tying in the rear axle housing to the chassis improves the stability of the motorhome while traveling.
On my coach the rear track bar gets: √√√√√ | |
