Walmart Wobble

Installed front and rear Super Steer Motion Control Units on my 2005 Winnebago Journey 39F and now have worse wobble than before. Have installed as per instructions. Has anyone had similar results with the MCU. Thanks

I experienced significant improvement after install. The most noticeable improvement was handling in curves and on freeway on/off ramps. However, the whipping back and forth in driveways is better but you can still get whipped if you are not careful.

I can't remember if they are directional. If so, might check and make sure you have them installed in the right direction. Also, Henderson told me to stay within 6" of the air bag for maximum effect. That was easy on the fronts and more difficult on the rears.

Why did you name your post "Walmart Wobble"? I didn't think that this was an item they carried.

My guess is comparing the RV problem to most every Wal-Mart shopping cart...almost impossible to find one that runs smooth and straight

That is the lead line in their advertisement....."Eliminate the WalMart wobble".

Hi toootall1,
I put the MCUs on several years ago. They work better than advertised.

Admittedly, the title did intrigue me............
Then I read the post and did not understand what the title had to do with the subject matter. Hence, my question.

Maybe the OP will chime in to describe what they meant by W-M Wobble....still think they are equating the MH wobble to W-M's shopping carts, which always wobble
