I agree 100% I don't have a lot of miles but it does seem more stable

I had it installed at the factory in Austell just west of Georgia's armpit. Trip took me down I85 to I285 to I20. Lots of roadway constriction, uneven pavement, and hundreds of semi trucks. The trip back was a good test of the product. I didn't know what I was missing. Talk about relief, less stress, and no more tired forearms constantly moving the steering wheel.
The factory guys were great. Only one adjustment and that was so slight I didn't notice the need for it, but the technician got it right on. I highly recommend the product.

What everyone else said. A couple of tips for the install/adjustment. I found a big, flat empty parking lot and that was an easy place to get the centering adjustment just right. Didn't have a helper to hold the steering wheel in just the right position so I used a couple of bunge cords to put just that little bit of tension on it that I needed to get exactly centered.

I do not have the Safe T Plus, and never thought I needed anything with my coach.

Same here. I can see where it might help on a lighter coach. I don't have any steering issues...to include a RF blowout on a previous 40' DP.

I think it would help they are mounted on large trucks small trucks buses world wide .. I can see why it would improve the handling on any rig unless yours comes from the factory with one on it.. My 2500 4x4 dodge CTD . Chevy's Fords they all have em. Yours may not need em .. Mine will have one next week on it !

Yes, just crawled around under "Sheila" & installed one today. That's a big honkin shock and having it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
