1994 Ford chassis strearing wander Bil 5-28-01  
Does anyone have a solution to drifting from side to side problem I have?
I have a tag axle on a Newmar Kountry Star.
I have had it alined,put a Davis TruTrac bar on it, a newSafTPlus cylinder on it,and had it weighed and carry the right tire pressure on the front and rear tires. It still wanders first one way and then back the other. It sure is tiring to drive .

I would have the front end alignment specs checked again, paying attention to the castor angle of each wheel, this is what gives directional stability. Also have the toe setting of the tag axle checked while the rig is in the shop.
