In addition to the Bilstein I have front black Sumo Springs. While driving on a two lane highway the wind was blowing fairly hard, and a semi truck passed me going the other way...I barely felt them both!!!

It literally feels like I am driving a different RV!!!! Each item took about 30 minutes to install and together they cost less than $300.00.

Do it if you haven’t done so already. Also, I am not experiencing any issues with pulling to the left...my coach is driving straight and true!!!

Bilstein doesn't make Steering Stabilizers, they make Steering Dampeners.

These steering dampers are zinc coated for resistance to harsh elements and match to all B8 5100 series products.

Calling a dampener a stabilizer confuses some people.
