Cool Which Safe T Plus for 2016 364TS

Ok guys, need your help please. I am looking at installing a safe t plus to the coach and I am getting conflicting answers on which one is correct for my application. Their website shows that I should get the blue one which is the 41-230, but I have spoken to 2 different installers and they are saying the tan one, 41-180. Has anyone here installed one on a 2016 364ts and if so which one is correct and which bracket kit fits as well? Hoping some of you fine people can help clear this up for me.

Why not call the manufacturer and not rely on local guys who may not know much.

You have a Ford F-53 chassis with a wheelbase of 242" with 22.5" tires.
Nothing has changed from previous years except the 6 speed transmission.
The web information says from the manuf. you need a 41-230 with F53K2.5 installing hardware
Now what color it isn't an issue.

Call them (safe t plus), they are super helpful. I did, and they helped me (2016 364) but I ended up going with the road king product instead (much less expensive). I don't remember which color they told me though....

Colors indicate the stiffness of the load on the device. In talking to them, we went one unit higher for better control. Call them, they won't "steer you wrong"!

They specify tan on their site for all the F53's with 19 or 22.5" wheels with the V10
"
STEERING CONTROL (Tan)

Safe-T-Plus high-performance steering controls are designed to reduce over-steering your vehicle making it easier to drive to your destination. Safe-T-Plus is perfect for Class A motorhomes with a Ford Chassis with V-10 engines and trucks with power steering."


The Blue is specified for :





STEERING CONTROL (Blue)

Safe-T-Plus high-performance steering controls are designed to reduce over-steering your vehicle making it easier
to drive to your destination. Safe-T-Plus is perfect for Class A Motor Coaches with solid I-Beam style axle (Freightliner, John Deere, Oshkosh, Gillig, Spartan, Magnum, Roadmaster, Workhorse, Blue Bird, etc.) and
over-the-road trucks with power steering.


Weird that their site says one thing and advice says another. But looks like the blue is more heavy duty so it couldn't hurt.
I have the Roadmaster Reflex Stabilizer RBK9 which fits all late model F53/V10 chassis. About $325 for bracket & stabilzer package. Happy with it: http://www.roadmasterinc.com/pdfinst/RBK9.pdf
