Benefits of an Anti-Sway System
The Roadmaster anti-sway bar does for side-to-side movement what a good pair of shocks does for up-and-down motion. You will notice a marked improvement in your vehicle's stability as the bar works to balance weight transfer and reduce body roll. The anti-sway bar acts as a link between your vehicle's frame and its rear axle, using the axle as a brace to more effectively balance the shifting weight of your vehicle as you maneuver it. Lubricated bushings allow just enough pivot and rotation to compensate for the pressure placed on one side of your vehicle when it goes into sudden maneuvers, hits crosswinds or encounters shifting weights.
Superior Construction
The Roadmaster anti-sway bar is made of 4140 chromoly, a chromium and molybdenum steel alloy. This type of steel is considerably harder and stronger than the standard 1020 steel that is typically used in anti-sway applications. In addition, the larger diameter of the bar increases its torsional roll stiffness. The result is a bar that is not only stronger than the competition, but also nearly 30 percent better at resisting sway. The polyurethane bushings and grommets used at the attachment points are durable yet flexible, ensuring that the system is neither so rigid nor so malleable that it becomes ineffective.

Haven't opened the stabilizer bars but I did open the Sumo Springs and the Snap Pads. All seemed to be there in good condition.
by: Lawrence 04/27/2023
Item shipped quickly and the installation was fairly easy in my opinion. Have not been able to drive the RV yet but I'm sure this upgrade will improve the handling.

It is working as advertised. My 26k F53 chassis doesnt rock or sway as much as it did with the manufacturer anti-sway bar. Definitely beefier and easy to install
by: Robert 05/02/2024
The antisway bar was a great investment. Between Etrailer'S videos and the packaged instructions, the installation was straight forward. Great product.

Best thing I have done to improve the driving and handling of our RV. Thanks to ETRAILER for helping me get the right parts and their professional support helping me return the wrong part I ordered.

Very smart investment. In combination with the upgraded rear anti-sway bar the amount of steering inputs was greatly reduced. Definitely extended the miles I now drive per day.

The anti sway bar showed up in a week, instructions were good. It was harder to get the old sway bar out than installing the new bar.

Quick delivery.
Had it installed in a few days at a local shop….only drove it home about 8-10 miles, felt the improvement immediately leaving the parking lot. Less side to side roll, better handling.

Truly an improvement especially cornering. My Class A F 53 chassis suffered in strong winds and the sway bar helped in these situations as well.

DELIVERED ON TIME. FIT OUR VEHICLE. TOOK A LITTLE LONGER TO INSTALL. HAD TO DRILL THE HOLES BIGGER TO FIT THE NEW BAR.
by: Shel07/12/2019
Got delivery in a timely manner. All items were as advertised and installation hardware was complete.
The Sumo Springs and heavy duty sway bars made a SIGNIFICANT difference in the ride and handling.
Would have no problem ordering from this company again. They were also very helpful and patient on the phone.

Roadmaster
I love both of the Roadmaster anti-sway bars I had installed right before a trip to Iowa. I purchased bushing kits for front and rear but, I didn't know the front sway bar came with new bushings. So I have an extra front sway bar bushing kit. The biggest difference I noticed right away was the handling on the highway. The people I talked to at etrailer were very helpful and always are when I call. Thanks
by: Richard 11/16/2023
Everything fix correctly but when called in too you I was told that you didn’t have a sway bar that fit my motorhome I took it on my own and order it and it fit great Thank you
by: Jerry 08/02/2023
The Anti-Sway bar is a positive improvement. The coach still needs additional handling improvements but, no motorhome will handle like a car or pickup.

- Best Suspension Upgrades For 2007 Gulf Stream Independence 22,000 GVWR on Ford ChassisHey Jaran, Great questions, and regarding the anti-sway bars, I definitely recommend upgrading to a larger size. When it comes to anti-sway bars on motorhomes like your Gulf Stream, bigger is definitely better. The larger the diameter of bar, the higher the roll stiffness it gives you, and that's the most important aspect of handling sway. The rear anti-sway bar is the best upgrade, followed by the front anti-sway bar, and then steering stabilizer for added control in the heavy crosswinds....

view full answer... - Recommended Anti-Sway Bars For A 2019 Ford F-53 Chassis For a 2019 Ford F-53 chassis you would need the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM25VR for the rear and the Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148 for the front. Anti-sway bars are not all the same diameter. For the most part the Roadmaster bars are typically much thicker than the factory bars, but we have seen a few brand new motorhomes with the same or larger diameter front sway bars since manufacturers are starting to sell them with upgraded suspension components to compete with...

Big rigs like yours (which is on a Ford F53 chassis) can be very taxing due to how hard you have to work to keep it in line, so the best thing you can do is add anti-sway bars and a steering stabilizer.

Please verify this and identify the GVWR of you specific motorhome. I suggest the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar, # RM25VR along with the Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer with Mounting Brackets, # RM62VR. These fit 16,000 to 26,000 GVWR chassis. There...
view full answer... - Track Bar vs Anti-Sway Bar For 2022 Thor Windsport 31C On F-53 ChassisA track bar and anti-sway bar address different issues on a motorhome. Track bars keep your vehicle's axle in line and minimize axle side play. An anti-sway bar like the # RM25VR improves stability and balances weight transfer reducing body roll. For your 2022 Thor Windsport 31C on an F-53 chassis I recommend choosing the sway bar over a track bar. The # RM25VR is the correct choice since your GVWR is 22,000 lbs. Installation of this anti-sway bar will help reduce driver fatigue and improve...

To drastically improve the overall suspension and drivers experience you will also want to add the Front SumoSprings # SSF-170-40-2, Front Sway Bar # RM-1139-148, Rear Sway Bar # RM-1139-149 and Steering Stabilizer...
view full answer... - Choosing Front or Rear Anti-Sway Bar for 2013 Thor ACE 30.1Hi Bob; since there is less stability at the rear of your 2013 Thor ACE 30.1 the rear anti-sway bar will have the greatest impact. The correct part for your motorhome is the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-146. It sounds like you plan on adding the front later so for that you will need the # RM-1139-148. The combination of the two will give you the best results.
view full answer... - Best Ways to Improve Handling and Stability of 2017 Thor Windsport 29MThe biggest improvement you can make in handling and stability for motorhomes built on a 2017 Ford F-53 chassis is with a rear sway bar like the part # RM-1139-146 which is correct for your motorhome and your 18k GVWR. Next up you'd want to upgrade the front sway bar with the part # RM-1139-148 and then finally with a steering stabilizer, the Exact Center # RM33RR. If you did all three of the upgrades you'd see a huge improvement but if you wanted to try them one at a time I'd go with...

The biggest difference will be noticed with the upgrade of the rear sway bar, then the front, then the SumoSprings. For a rear sway bar you'd want the part # RM-1139-145 then for the front bar part # RM-1139-148. Then for front Sumo Springs you'd want the part # SSF-170-40-2 and for the rear # SSR-187-54-1.

The unit is smaller and less likely to catch road debris than the Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer. The Exact Center also has a stainless steel construction so there is less corrosion in salty areas.

Unfortunately, for this particular model, we do not have a steering stabilizer available for your chassis model.
