Ford Steering
Is the problem with Class C Ford 26 feet and longer caused by the over hang behind the rear wheels causing over and under steering?

don;t quite understand all this talk abt e450 steering. On my 98 max is 14.050 weight just came off state scales(have always gotten a free weigh , they are even glad to do it & even get a print out, some even have 4 point & really guys they don;t care what u weigh, as they don;t even know what its suppose to be) running at 14.200 now frt is 4550 which is right just little over on rear such a joy to drive, no semi sway straight tracking can steer w/ 1hand. have air bags rear stock frt & rear sway bar just did new frt shocks as they were getting old , not cause i had to. I have abt 11' rear overhang.
To me if u start adding steering assist you are taxing p/s pump esp that 1 w/ all those springs
Just for clarification for those that are unaware. A trak bar goes in the rear of a MH. Not tied to steering. It ties the frame to the running gear to prevent sway for short wheel base vehicles with large overhang. Steer safe and steer tie in components are in case you have a front blow out. Which helps keep a vehicle under control. Not sure they help that much to correct a steering problem.
