Anyone install a Safe T Plus?

We have a 2016 Forester 3011 DS and are considering having a Sate T Plus steering control device installed. Would greatly appreciate any feedback from anyone with a similar RV who have had the Safe T Plus installed and how effective it is in reducing the front end sway. Thank you

Jer, I have the same MH as you from the 2013 model year. When first delivered I felt like the steering was so bad and my control so comprised that it was unsafe. The first thing I did was add a rear steering control, helped a little, had the front end aligned to the specs posted on both the Forester and Sunseeker threads, steering improved dramatically but passing trucks, buses etc still moved me around the last thing I added was the Safe-T-Steer - problem solved. RV is like driving my RAM pick-up. Solid control, minimum movement caused by passing trucks able to feel comfortable in all driving conditions. I hope this helps.

Greetings. Thank you for the info on the Safe-T-Steer. I assume the safe-t-steer and the safe-t-plus are one in the same? We just returned from a trip to the beach and I definitely plan to have a Safe-T-Plus installed. Jerry

Got the cousin to your 3011DS..... and I recently installed a Roadmaster RSSC Reflex Steering Stabilizer. What a difference! Takes maybe an hour to install, even if you're only 1/2 mechanically inclined.

I have a 2007 lexington 283GTS 45,000 miles with the same issue BUT when I bought it it came with the Safe T Plus, so for mine it didn't work.

I wonder what else you were going to try if the steering stabilizer didn't work?
