1979 35FC

[Pete Masterson]

There are some third-party steering stabilizers -- I don't know how
effective they are. My coach had a Blue Ox True Center installed by
the previous owner -- but I don't know what the steering was like
before it was installed.

It is also the nature of large vehicles to have a bit more wander
than smaller vehicles -- but excessive wander is a problem that needs
to be addressed.

I assume that the front end bushings and steering bearings have all
been checked/replaced.
