Supersteer Motion Control

Has anyone installed the supersteer motion control units on a new Dutch Star? If so, what are your thoughts?

Thanks!

If you decide to install, you would only need them on the front, as the tag keeps the rear end pretty stable. I placed them on the front of my 2014. I didn't see a huge improvement. They're suppose to keep you from "elephant walking" when exiting a driveway. I would spend the money on the Koni EVO's before I spent it on the motion control units.

Thanks so much! I have a 2019 4018 on the spartan chassis. Do you have the evo’s on yours?

I installed the EVO's the first month, but I have a Freightliner.

Did you do just the front? Big difference?

I find a big difference with the EVO's over the stock shock. They take away a lot of the front end chatter that gets the front shade shaking. I also hear a lot of the road and potholes, but don't feel them.

Some spend money on electronics, but I like to spend on chassis stuff. I replaced all six shocks and added Centramatics at each wheel position.

Hi dcrna1,
I installed Motion Control devices all around. Also the Koni shocks all around and Centramatics, all around. Heavy duty track bar in the back. Not all at once, but each accessory helped with the coach handling.
