SuperSteer Motion Control valves

Hey all, have any of you installed these on your rig? I downgraded from a 45ft conversion bus to a Red 33AA. The Red does a nice job in the handling department but I do notice quite a bit of rocking and lean. Have read about the SuperSteer units but looking for first hand experience. Thanks!

Before throwing money at the rocking, I would call the Tiffin factory first, and request suggestions and recommendations to resolve the problem.
From what I've read for years, Tiffin has the best after-the-sale support in the industry.

I have had them installed, both front and back. It will absolutely decrease the oscillations to about half. But to be honest, I had the Koni shocks and the Safe-T-Steer installed at the same time. YMMV, but this combination difference was day and night compared to the factory setup.

Some have installed Sharkbite ball valves. Takes a couple of test drives to adjust to ride desired. And if you don't like them, leave them open. Same results at a fraction of the MCU valves. Lots of info on Brand X forum.

I used to own a 2008 Itasca Meridian 37. A couple of times, when pulling into a gas station at a very slow speed and at an angle, the coach would rock back and forth so violently that some of the upper cabinets would empty onto the floor. I read about the motion control valves and their purpose. I thought I would give them a try. They worked!



I believe they are only designed to overcome this weird oscillation at slow speeds that Freightliner chassis had. They didn't change normal over the road handling.



When I got another Winnebago (43') with a tag axle Freightliner chassis, it didn't have motion control valves and didn't need it.



My 45' Bus doesn't need them either. If you're getting, what seems to be uncontrolled oscillation, I recommend them. If you don't have this sympton, I am not sure what they will do for you.
