Anti-Sway Bars & Steering Stabilizer for 2021 Ford F53 Class-A Chassis

Question

Question:

I have a 2021 Tiffin open road 36ua. Do your sway bars replace factory bars or are they in addition to mine. Crosswind, ruts keep me fighting the wheel. Would a stabilizer help

The Roadmaster # RM-1139-149 Rear Anti-Sway Bars that you referenced are the correct sway bars and hardware to replace those on your Ford F53 chassis. The bar is 1-5/8" thick and constructed from 4140 Chromoly steel for outstanding rigidity and control. I agree with you that adding the Roadmaster steering stabilizer would improve handling and steering comfort, but they do not anticipate having the 2021 chassis tested until August of 2021. If you would email me back then I would be happy to check on that again.
