steering stabilizer?

[ktcnyc]

I have been distressed with my coaches tweeky steering since I acquired it last summer. After a recent trip to the Florida Keys, Jeff Sirum replaced
the steering box- to little improvement. I am now considering a steering stabilizer -Safe-t-plus. Does anyone have experience with this add on?
Reviews in general are very positive but specifics to the GMC would be helpful. Many thanks for any advice on this.

Your coach already has one from the factory. It may be worn out and in need
of replacement. Take it off and test it. If it needs replacement, they are
available from our vendors.

Find and correct the actual problems. Is your stock stabilizer good? You can’t tell unless you test it disconnected. They don’t last long and I
have seen ones look good and have a 3/4” dead zone so doing nothing. That said the stabilizer is just part of the equation and really the cherry on
top once the rest is correct. That said if bad replace it.

Without correcting the issues that are causing your problem a “Safe-T-Plus Steering stabilizer will not fix your problem and may aggravate your problem!
John L is correct!
