I had Henderson's install MCU's at the same time they put on the Koni 88's, several years ago. I noticed a modest reduction on the 'extent' of sway when exiting a steep curb cut. You still will have the Walmart Wobble, but it may not throw all the clothes in the closet, onto the floor.


Is it worth the cost? Maybe. Depends upon how careful you are entering/exiting curb cuts.


In regards to slow airbag deflation, my auto-level function still works automatically - that is, I don't need to pre-deflate first.

Go over a dip at an angle and the coach (actually all tall vehicles) rock side to side.


Speed and depth of dip are important in terms of how much rocking. You can time the rear wheels reaching the dip such that they help cancel the rocking OR add to it!

Oh, Oh. No shocks will cure that.


Don't even thing a bigger sway bar will help.

But, if someone can invent a working motion control valve..............

We need MCUs that only work at low speed.
