part number of the damper changed to 22011982.
The steering is a recirculating ball type and needs basic checks for fluid level and condition (ever
think of changing that fluid?), drive belt tension, loose mountings, and loose pump pulley. If the
power steering pump needs to be replaced, be aware that the motorhome version is different
from the standard Commercial P-Series version. It is a stronger pump with higher pressure
ratings. The wrong one will definitely affect steering effort.
Shocks are generally checked for leaks, bad bushings or damage from getting hit by road junk
and being bent. However, if you are chasing down bad handling, a worthwhile step is to
disconnect the lower part of each shock and find out if it really has resistance to movement,
both up and down. You might be surprised. Always replace in pairs. Don't forget to look at the
mounts for breaks or broken welds. Replacing with a stronger rear shock may require
reinforcement to the rear mounts. Instructions should be with the shocks, but will require some
welding.
The front stabilizer bar (see below) has 4 rubber bushings, one at each end and two on frame
mounts. Make sure those mounts are tight and all the bushings are in good shape.
