1979 35FC

Does your '79 have air bags suspension? If so, check the "dog bones" both front
and back. That is what I found on our '81FC. The bushings were metal-to-metal.
They are hard to see and may need to be removed to check them. Made a huge
difference on mine. I spent about $4k and 2 years trying to get this fixed.
All the while it was getting worse.

Good luck.

I am having steering problems on my 1979 wonderlodge, the coach wanders
dramaticly from side to side. Had the front end algined and steering
box tightened did not help. This is a disaster waiting to happen. I
could just keep driving this thing and over time have arms like the
Hulk. Bluebird in GA said that a 79 does have a problem of wandering
and that there is no updated steering box conversion. Is there anything
or any suggestion on how to cure this problem.
