SuperSteer Trac Bar SS401

Installed a SuperSteer Trac Bar SS401 rear trac bar yesterday. Pretty easy install as long as you have the tools. Didn't need a lift or anything. I just rolled underneath my RV with a creeper and did it that way. Took less then 2 hours. Taking a trip this weekend from Atlanta to Burlington NC and I'm excited to see how it works for my 2013 Thor Hurricane 34E Ford F53.

I'll also be doing the CHF next week. I ordered long sway bar links to use when I do the CHF.

Just got back home and IMO the trac bar worked wonderfully. 700 miles trip from Atlanta to Elon, NC and back pulling my Jeep Wrangler. No tail wagging like before the trac bar. Many times I got up to 75mph before I realized it. Normally cruise at 65. So I believe it was money well spent.

Also just did the CHF in the rear. But I bought adjustable swaybar links instead of using the original ones. I adjusted them to be about 1 1/4" longer.

If I remember, aren’t the washers supposed to be on either side of the heim joint? Not under the nut(on the trac bar).
