Couldn't be happier with the Safe t plus. Well worth the money and would recommend to anyone thinking about it. I ordered from Safe t plus directly, fantastic customer service and very friendly and knowledgeable about their products.

Although it wasn't too bad before installing ( did the CHF from day one) it's like driving a totally different RV now.

Would highly recommend checking your alignment before installing. My steering wheel is just a few degrees left of center now when wheels are straight. I can live with that for now since it's barely off center.

I couldn't tell that prior to installing the Safe t plus since it was hard to determine what straight was while I was sawing on the wheel a bit to stay straight.

Install for me was scary easy, took about 45 minutes total, most of which was rounding up tools. I thought I may have had some trouble loosening the leaf spring u bolts based on some comments I've seen. I blasted the bolts with liquid wrench the night before installing and the next day had no trouble removing the u bolt nuts with a 1/2 breaker bar. Almost nailed it dead on with first attempt, over adjusted the other way on 2nd and hit it dead on with the 3rd adjustment. [emoji88]

I put a Safe T Plus on my class C and found the installation to be very straightforward. Took me 3 tries to get it adjusted just right. When I traded for a class A I chose the Roadmaster, mostly because other Roadmaster products I’ve purchased have been wonderfully engineered and beautifully made. Oh, and it was cheaper. It was a different chassis so not strictly comparable but install was even easier and I got it adjusted more quickly (mostly because I was more careful to have the steering centered before I started he installation). They seem to function equally well but I think the Roadmaster seemed to be a bit more substantial - although, again, since it is on a bigger coach it was a larger size. If I ever need another I’m going to go with whichever is cheaper. You won’t go wrong with either.
