New Class C owner stability control??

Just got back from my first trip in our NEW Thor Chateau 31E Motorhome and I must say there were a few white knuckle experiences. It was rather windy the first day. So I have went and purchased a Roadmaster Reflex steering stabilizer and a Hellwig rear sway bar hoping this will help out a lot. Have any of you tried these products on your Class C? They came highly recommended and I want to enjoy this RV not be scared to drive it. We bought it to head across country and to enjoy the camping life style again. We had a travel trailer back in the 90's and loved it. Now the kids are grown and its our time. Hope to get these installed next week before our next trip.

    Thanks for all the replies. I am use to pulling travel trailers so yes the MH is a new beast for me. On my way home I handled it a lot better but it did take some getting use to. My tire pressure is around 65-70. I plan on getting the unit weighed soon to determine correct pressure for each axle. Was also hoping that by going with the steering stabilizer and the rear sway bar it would help with the passing 18 wheeler s and cross winds. I love this new motorhome. This newbee just has a lot to learn. lol. Thanks again for all the comments.


    Hey, I'm right down the road from you in Troutman. We have a Chateau 31L.

    We haven't had any issues as you noted with ours. We had a 35' TT before that we pulled with an F250 Crew Cab. The motorhome is a much nicer experience. Do we get push from an 18 wheeler? Yes, but very little. Compared to the TT that is. Also, are you towing something?
  • That cool to know someone close by. Glad you are liking yours. We love ours.
