Purchased our first MH, 1994 Itasca Sunrise 28' with the dreaded P-30 chasis. I'm at witts end on getting this thing to stop wandering when even automobiles pass. I have installed Bilsteins on all four corners, new Bilstein steering shock, new SafeTSteer stabilizer,SuperSteer bell cranks,Henderson rear stabilizer bar,checked ride height 2" front with air bags set at 65 psi,had a truck frame/frontend shop replace upper arm bushings,lower ball joints etc and then a complete front end alignment, tried front tire air pressures from 65 to max 80 psi,ran with 0 levels in all holding tanks. The wife will not drive it and I'm constantly pre-compensating for when being passed by vehicles. "ANY" tips or ideas will be appreciated. From the weekend warriors Steve and Karen. P.S. Really enjoy the IRV2 web site and "you'all's" sharing your camping knowledge with us green horns.

I would like to welcome you also, and like those before me, I am no help with your motorhome problem, but I am certain that someone on this great forum can help you out though.

Steve and Karen -
Welcome to the irv2.com forum! Although I can't help you with the MH issues, I have no doubt that others will be more knowledgeable in that area and will give you some good pointers!
I'd like to invite you to check in the forums under Rallies and Campouts and find the Texas Boomers! We've got rallies posted for the rest of the year and the "Houston area" Boomers are getting together at least once a month in our neck of the woods.
YA'LL COME JOIN US! We'd love to meet you!
Sandy
