Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bar Installed

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.


Roadmaster Anti-Sway Polyurethane Bushings

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.

by:

The antisway bar was a great investment. Between Etrailer'S videos and the packaged instructions, the installation was straight forward. Great product.



by:

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:

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.



by:

I'm glad i put the front anti-sway bar on. It does make driving easier.



by:
2018 Thor ACE Motorhome

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.



by:
Ford

The older Southwind on a Ford chassis is nearly undriveable with OEM STAB BAR. Your bar alleviated my sway problem.



by:

The group at etrailer are absolutely great. UPS lost my order out of the box and delivered me an empty box. Called in to etrailer and they took care of the claim with UPS empty box was delivered on Wednesday I had a replacement on Saturday. Totally a five star service



by:

Had this installed along with a rear sway bar & steering stabilizer. The rig doesn’t wear me out anymore, I can drive all day long. Just the result I was hoping for.



by:
2013 Ford F-53

Great company to deal with, sway bar & steering stabilizer look well built will be installing in a couple months

Simply amazing



by:

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.



by:

needed to replace front anti sway bar on my 2004 Class A RV. not stiff enough. Long story short, folks at etailer fulfilled all aspects of ordering and shipping as they said. Very, very pleased with them and their product. Highly recommend.



by:
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:

Works great on my 2019 Thor Windsport 34j. Improved handling.



by:

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:

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.



by:

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.



by:

Installed as described



by:
2013 Ford F-53

Quality product. Packaged exceptionally good and protective.
I have bought several great Roadmaster items from etrailer and it has always arrived on time. This order came a day early.
Very happy.



by:

It made a great improvement to our motor home while driving down the highway. Very happy with the purchase



by:

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:

Definitely a big difference in the drive! I was expecting longer bolts that hold the sway bar.



by:
2013 Ford F-53

Fits great improvement in steering 100 per cent

I love how easy etrailer has made the app to use. I just removed the product from packaging and it’s all good. Can’t wait for the test drive. Thank you ET.

    From the information available to me, the 2021 Thor Outlaw 38MB is constructed on a Ford F-53 chassis, please confirm this for your specific vehicle. For the F-53 chassis motorhome and suspension upgrades my preference is to suggest Roadmaster items and I always start with the front and rear anti-sway bars followed by a steering stabilizer as first recommendations.

If your Intruder has the Chevrolet Vortec engine you have a Workhorse 22 chassis and will need SumoSprings # SSR-280-54-1 for the rear axle, and # SSF-280-47 for the front axle. For a front anti-sway bar you will need # RM-1259-105, and # RM88RR for a steering stabilizer. If you have a Ford V10 engine then you have the F-53 chassis and will need...

    If your 2013 Thor Challenger, built on a Ford 22-Series V-10 chassis, has a noticeable tilt to the driver's side even when parked on level ground this might simply be due to the weight of the slide-out assemblies. We have heard of this issue before. You can have the coach suspension checked out by a qualified technician and you might also want to confirm that your loading of the coach is not also responsible for the tilt. Thor can probably offer you some help on this point; I suggest contacting...

    Since your 2020 Forest River Georgetown XL 369DS has a GVWR of 24,000 lbs the correct rear sway bar is the part # RM-1139-149, the correct front is # RM-1139-148, the correct steering stabilizer is # RM-RBK25-RSSA, and for SumoSprings # SSR-187-54-1 for the rear and # SSF-173-40-2 for the front and you'd be set!

  • Is There a Sway Bar That Mounts on the Axle
    Sway bars in their nature, are a link between the vehicles frame and axle. They will install to both the frame and axle. The Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148 you were looking at installs in this manor and fits F-550 and F-53 Class A Chassis. I am not aware of a sway bar that only attaches to the axle and not the frame. If you were meaning something else and I misunderstood, please reach out with a little more information and I would be happy to help you further.

  • Recommendation to Improve Ride and Stability of 2016 Fleetwood Bounder 34 Foot
    You can use all of the components you listed together and it will work well. Typically the product that makes the biggest difference in body roll, handling, stability etc. is the rear sway bar, then the front sway bar, and finally the steering stabilizer. Suspension enhancement does help too but I wouldn't put it quite in the same category as the other products. The rear bar you want is part # 1139-144 due the length of your RV, the front bar you want # RM-1139-148 and the the stabilizer...

  • Recommended Front and Rear Sway Bars for 2017 Thor A.C.E. RV
    You are correct that the F-53 chassis like what you have on your 2017 Thor A.C.E. RV is known for having some sway issues on the road. This can be greatly improved by adding a front and rear anti-sway bar to the chassis which will help to balance weight transfer and reduce body roll. For your Thor A.C.E. I recommend the Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-146 for the rear axle and the Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148 for the front. All the needed mounting hardware is included with...

  • Suspension Upgrades For 2019 Forest River FR3 33DS on F53/F550 Chassis
    For your steering stabilizer you should use the Roadmaster # RM-RBK22-RSSA stabilizer kit with mounting brackets. This stabilizer uses a tempered steel spring to keep the steering in line. When compressed, it will extend back to neutral, and when extended it will retract back to neutral. This reduces road fatigue by making it easier to steer. It helps with crosswinds, uneven pavement, rut tracking, road edging, or even a tire blowout so you can easily maintain control. For the rear Anti-Sway...
