I know it drove better after the rebuild. I took it on a two week trip from Florida to Nashville, then Harrison Arkansas, then Dallas Texas and back to Florida after a side trip to Tail of the Dragon. Nearly 4000 miles.

Every coach here new drove perfectly.  As the Foretravel salesman like me said.  Worn parts or poor tire choices would seem to be the problem?

That's good stuff.  What air pressure?

107 up front, 95 in back.  Unless Tom has changed it.

My basically same coach was noticeably directionally unstable at much over the 97 psi front, 87 psi rear.

Exactly correct per the Michelin chart.  No ide what the Toyos require


Costs very little to drop the pressure.

Sounds crazy but if you are feeling for these things 2-3 pounds up front is noticeable as is the ride improvement at 97/87

If that does not help I would re tighten the wheel bearings
