Roadmaster Backordered

I just ordered my front sway bar (1109-149) from etrailer.com and got a call that they are backordered with an expected shipping time of 8 weeks! Hope it gets here in time for our September trip!

Hellwig does not make one for the Chevy Express 4500 chassis that my FW 28A sits on.

Trying to get roadmaster baseplate for our new car and roadmaster and etrailer both backorder, and roadmaster is the only company currently making the baseplate for our car.

The Roadmaster front sway bar showed up! More than a month ahead of schedule. We'll get her installed when son-in-law is available in a couple of weeks. (DW didn't want me to go solo).

Congrats. I waited 2 months for my rear anti-sway bar, and finally cancelled the order.

... and you were worried...
Glad to read that it got here in time for a leisurely day under the rig with your Son-in-Law.

I had the same issue with eTrailer when ordering my front steering stabilizer (Roadmaster). Ended up finding the right one on Amazon, ordered from there and got it in 3 days at the same price.

Got the Roadmaster front sway bar installed with son-in-law's help. Went pretty smoothly.

I could feel the difference immediately! Less sway, less steering. Along with the alignment with +5 caster, this is a dream to drive.

Might be my imagination, but thought is was quieter. Less bumping and banging.
