I wish I had that a 425 Cummins in my coach, I wouldn't  have anything to talk about. 

Good advise on talking with someone with Allison. Sometimes that is hard to do ...will try it   Thanks

[Performance Chip For 2007 Workhorse 8.1L]

I have a 2007 GMC Fleetwood Pace Arrow 36D.  The engine is an 8.1L and the tranny is an Allison 2100. I don't get the greatest gas mileage around 7 if lucky, I am wanting to tow a small car and want to know about possibly adding a chip to improve gas mileage and some horsepower.

There are so many different ones out there and I don't even know where to start. I am a little skeptical on "if they really work"  and :how safe they are". 

Any help on what to do will be very appreciated  ..... Thanks

[Trac Bar to Keep Motorhome Straight - Front or Rear?]

I had the same problem on my 2003 Pace Arrow 37G, Workhorse chassis. I made my own trac bar there are several plans on Omeys web site. I used a top link for a 3 point tractor hitch. $35.00 from tractor supply. I had the steel to build the rest. The first trip out I could not believe the difference. Omeys has so much info on Workhorse, check it out. The price I got for a mfg trac bar was $550.00 plus installation.

Thanks...I'll check out that website.

Thanks...Now to determine which brand to get.....I image they all do the same job.

Daffy,

I had a similar problem on a different chassis years back! It was almost impossible to keep on the road.

The big problem was in the front king pins(Ball Joint Area). Once it was rebuilt it went down the road much better.

With only 17k miles on it they should be covered under warranty, I would think.

Mine was rebuilt with less the 10k on it, but I had to fight to get them to believe me.

Rich.

I will look into that to see what I can do...Thanks

Thanks Dwight...I think I will try a rear trac bar first. Dave

It is a Workhorse W24 chassis, 2007 Pace Arrow 36D, has only 17,000 miles on it. Bought it several months ago and now I see why they got rid of it.....

When I was at the alignment shop they told me that the steering box could not be tighten up. They told me everything up front looked pretty good. According to the tech.

I am thinking of installing a track bar to solve a problem with play in the steering wheel. I FIGHT TO KEEP THE COACH IN A STAIGHT LINE.

I have the tire pressure correct, checked the front-end alignment, added front and rear Roadmaster sway bars and also a Roadmaster steering stabilizer.

My next try is to install a trac bar, but would this problem be solved with a front trac bar or a rear trac bar?

Thanks for any help on this.
