Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar Installation - 2006 Ford E-450- Video

Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar Installation - 2006 Ford E-450

Today on our 2006 Ford E450 with an RV body, we're going to review and install the Road Master rear anti-sway bar, part number RM-1139-147. With the manufacturer's sway bar, when we went over the uneven bumps we got a lot of body roll, because of the jostle and impact to the vehicle. With the new Road Master sway bar in place, we get a much firmer feel of the vehicle, not only in the steering, but also minimizes the body roll and impact from the uneven bumps or our parallel bumps, such as a speed bump. Now let's go ahead and show you how to install it. Now to begin our install, we need to remove the old or manufacturer's rear sway bar, that's just in front of and behind the rear axle. Keep in mind that each process we do here on the driver's side, is going to get repeated identically on the passenger's side, as all of our attachment points are the same. Now to start, I'm going to go ahead and spray the sway bar link - where it connects to the sway bar - threads so we can remove the nut. Over time you're going to build up with rust, dust, dirt and debris, and by spraying with a spray lubricant, you make it easier to remove them. Once we take the nut off, we can then go ahead and take off the metal washer, and the rubber bushing. more

Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer Installation - 2006 Ford F-450

Part number R-M dash R-B-K-1-1 dash R-S-S-C. Now here's what the reflex steering stabilizer will look like once it's installed. The steering stabilizer is designed to help resist the side to side motion if you run across a pot hole or an uneven portion of the road. It'll also assist in returning the steering wheel back to the center after sharp or wide turns. Alright, now let's go and show you how to install it. Now to begin our install, we need to remove the older manufacture's steering stabilizer. Start our removal, we're going to remove the two U-bolts that secure it here to the drag lane.

Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar Installation - 2006 Ford E-450- Video

Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar Installation - 2006 Ford E-450

Today on our 2006 Ford E450 Super Duty, we're going to review and install the Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar for Motor Homes, part number RN-1139-115. As we go down the road, it'll reduce the body roll, tire wear and driver fatigue. Now, with the old or manufacturer's sway bar link installed, we had a lot of sway when we cornered going down our slalom course. With our new Roadmaster sway bar link installed, we've taken a lot of that body roll out and sway from the top-heavy of our motor home body. As the body rolls, the sway bar will push down to compensate and try and keep the frame and body together as they corner. With the manufacturer's sway bar when we went over the uneven bumps we got a lot of body roll because of the jostle and impact to the vehicle. more
