Hi, John with etrailer. If you have a motor coach like this, and it has the Ford F-53 chassis, and you're tired of fighting the steering going down the road, whether it's due to crosswinds or uneven pavement, and we've got a product today that's gonna help with that. We're looking at Roadmaster's Exact Center steering stabilizer kit that we've installed on a 2015 Ford F-53 chassis. And one of the reasons I like this kit so much is it's truly a bolt-on kit, and you can get this done at home. This is an all-aluminum cylinder. It's made in the USA, and what it basically consists of is a high-pressure nitrogen cylinder that's gonna tie in with your steering system, and keep you going straight down the road. And it's gonna eliminate the lane wander, like I said earlier. So if it, instead of having your coach start to wander, and then you have to go to correct it, it's doing all the little stuff for you. This is a nice little kit, and Roadmaster makes great products. This is one of those things that you can get it done, and it has a lifetime warranty on it, and you can make adjustments with it going down the road with just a single wrench. Now as far as installation goes, it does kind of depend on your chassis, whether or not you have the 19-and-a-half inch wheels or the 22-and-a-half inch wheels, the reason being, you have to remove two of the U-bolts off of your leaf spring suspension. The difference in torque when you go to reapply those is kind of big. So if you have the smaller wheels, like we do on this coach today, it's not that big of a deal to re-torque those U-bolts back down. So before the installation here, what I've got is I have some layers of painter's tape on the dash and the steering wheel. What I'm going to do is try to get this up to speed, and we're gonna find the true center point of our suspension and our steering components up in the front here. You can't always just rely on whether or not your steering wheel is straight. A lot of times, sure, that's great, but it may not be exact, and we're gonna want to get as close as possible to the exact center as we can. So I'm gonna get this rolling. The road needs to be as flat as you can be, and I've already got a line drawn on the dash, and I'm picking a point off in the distance that we're steering towards. And when I feel like the coach is moving in a straight direction, I'll just match that line with the steering wheel. Now when we go to park, before I turn the engine off, I'll make sure that these two are lined up, and we'll know that we have the center point of our steering components. Now that we have the center point marked, and we know the center of our suspension and steering components, let's go ahead and get it in the shop and make our improvements. So we've got our coach up in the air just to make it a little bit easier to show you what we're doing. But in all reality, the coach should be on the ground. You should have, you know, your tires on the ground. If you use your jacks to get up underneath of it to make it a little bit easier, that's okay, but it could throw the calibration of it left to right off a little bit. So once you get it installed, if you can get it back on the ground and then do your final adjustments, that's gonna be your best bet. So we're gonna start the install. This is gonna be probably the hardest part about this installation is we need to loosen up the two U-bolts on the leaf springs here. These are gonna be an inch and an eighth, and we're gonna be using a one-inch impact today. These are usually torqued pretty high. (tool whirring) Okay, now, in your kit, you're gonna have a bracket. They call this the chassis bracket. You're gonna notice an oval hole in it. And so the way that this gets mounted up on the vehicle, you can see the tires over here. So it's gonna be like this. So we have the U-bolt here and here. Okay, we'll install it like that, and then you're gonna wanna re-torque your U-bolt down to the factory specs, and you can find these specs online. Each coach is gonna be a little bit different. It depends on the gross vehicle weight rating of the coach builder here and the chassis. Now you can grab what they're gonna call the reflex tie rod bracket. It looks like this. So the half-inch hole here is gonna face towards the front of the coach. You wanna grab that. You also wanna grab a U-bolt, and it's g
