Roadmaster Active suspension for axlewrap
Anybody on here ever try this product? RoadMaster Active Suspension.
www.activesuspension.com
Was wondering if it was any good and would cure axlewrap? Don't really want to stiffen the suspension any either. Any input good or bad would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Lots of us in the excursion forum use RAS to help out our weaker springs vs the superduty springs Ford uses. It helps to keep the rear springs arched thus fighting axle wrap, but with a big lift and/or taller block you may need more help

Looks pretty weak to me. I don't think its worth much. I had axle wrap on my 4x4 since it had 488 gears and 40 inch tires. It was so bad it rounded my spring perch's and I blew out the drive shaft u-joint. I cant believe some one would have this kind of problem with a stock F-350.

Shudders pretty bad from a dead stop once the turbo starts slamming the boost to it.

Nope. Has done since the day I drove it off the lot brand spanking new. Got 130,000 on it now. Been looking for a solution that didn't involve those dang bars that tie into the frame from the axle. Want something simple and reasonable. The truck sits stock and will stay that way as long as I drive it.

I had a similar problem with my F-350, some time ago. I took it to the dealer and complained and they worked on it under warranty. I don't think it did much to fix it, and then after thinking about it for a while I went to the local auto parts store and got some limited-slip additive and I squirted some of that into the differential. I think that fixed the problem.
