Re: Steer Safe (new topic)

What took you so long???

I drove my 2003 23.5' for about 5000 miles to "test" the handling and
stability in several different road and weather conditions before
deciding that a steering stabilizer would improve the overall "road
feel". I decided on the Safe-T-Plus; Henderson's in Grants Pass, OR,
installed it. After about 50,000 miles, the Safe-T-Plus is still doing
the job.

Two caveats on the Safe-T-Plus: make sure that the shop which installs
the stabilizer is experienced, knowledgeable, and competent, i.e., they
select the correct stabilizer for your application and install it
correctly. And, understand that the Safe-T-Plus will need occasional
adjustment to maintain its function. The adjustment isn't difficult to
do, but it does require knowing which bolt to loosen and where and how
much to whack the thing with the hammer!
