Broad Mod: How to Install a Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer (Freightliner S2RV Chassis)

When we bought our new RV (a 2022 Entegra Accolade XL 37L, which is basically the same as the Jayco Seneca Prestige 37L), one of the first upgrades that we wanted to install was a steering stabilizer.   Even though the Freightliner S2RV chassis seems to ride great, there’s always the chance of a blow-out. In general, a steering stabilizer will help maintain control of the vehicle in the event of crosswinds, rut tracking, road edging or a tire blowout. Well, at least that is what the manufacturers claim.

Although we are NOT RV experts, we decided to tackle the installation of the Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer ourselves. Correction:  KASIE decided to tackle the project.  I just stood around and offered moral support.  

As you’ll see in the video, the Roadmaster instructions were confusing at times, and we contacted both E-Trailer (where we purchased the steering stabilizer from) and Roadmaster on a couple of occasions to make sure we were doing things correctly.   And, most importantly, we had to figure out which Roadmaster Exact Center steering stabilizer was truly suitable for our S2RV chassis? (Spoiler: it’s the 481300A)
