Re: Really rough ride, poor handling in the wind/on uneven roads, pr Reply #25 – July 27, 2018, 06:22:45 pm Yahoo Message Number: 16822My 2005 seneca 34ss was unwieldy until I put an "additional" roadmaster swaybar on the rear, and a large sway bar on the front.New bilstein shocks, and a steering centering device on the steering. Oh ya, a new arm from the steering box to the long bar between the wheels. These additions helped the wind, truck and over-steer conditions by 90%.But, the rig still wanders more than I would like. It seems the rig does better if I am not towing (I tow a Jeep Liberty flat). Is there a way to minimize "the tail wagging the dog". It isn't terrible, but still noticeable. annoyingRalph Quote Selected

Re: Really rough ride, poor handling in the wind/on uneven roads, pr Reply #30 – July 28, 2018, 10:50:30 pm Yahoo Message Number: 16827I can't even remember what brand sorry. But if it bolts to ur rearend and has a rod, bar, or extension that attaches to ur frame. Then that's it.I raised my suspension in the rear like 5 inches. With added leaf springs. This stopped ass end dragging and gave me suspension. I was now able to hit a bump or hole and feel some suspension. It put more Weight on frt end. And less on rear made a huge difference.The trak bar helped with the sway. Cut it in half . MH top going left to right. I could actually feel MH leaning, in wind or turn, and the leaning would be half.My kids following me could see the diffferenceLarry Payne ⛳ Quote Selected
Re: Really rough ride, poor handling in the wind/on uneven roads, pr Reply #31 – July 29, 2018, 09:49:54 am Yahoo Message Number: 16828I had track bars installed on front and rear. It stopped the tail wagging the dog. Without the track bar, the spring bushings allow to much side to side flex.DanSent from my Verizon 4G LTE smartphone Quote Selected

Re: Really rough ride, poor handling in the wind/on uneven roads, pr Reply #33 – August 02, 2018, 04:49:17 pm Yahoo Message Number: 16849Ralph, On mine, the front is a Davis Tru-Trac track bar that the previous owner installed. On the rear I installed an UltraTrac unit that is also used on the Ford F53 chassis. It fit correctly and is a well built piece, especially for the cost compared to other brands out there.https://www.ultrarvproducts.com/UltraTrac-Trac-Bars/UTF53V10R-Rear-Ultratrac-Trac-Bar-Ford-F53-20-22k-GVW-Chassis?filter=128As far as sway bars (or anti-sway bars) the rear is still the stock unit. Up front I installed the Hellwig unit. It looks identical to the Roadmaster and BlueOx units but at a better price. Quote Selected
