working too hard

My '04 E350 is a little "tender" when driving in crosswind conditions.

Can anyone suggest a solution or aftermarket fix for this problem.

you are going to think i am an *** for what i posted in your other thread, but anyways i am not trying to be. it is a big van with lots of wind resistance, cross winds are going to be a pain. there isn't anything that i know of that you could really do. now when you say tender do you mean the steering is too sensitive or just the wind pushing you around and you are always haveing to correct it? either way i don't think there is much to be done, just inherint problems with a big work van that it's not going to ride or drive like a high end car. usually takes a little getting used to.

Thanks, Texan 83. Nope, I don't think ill of your response at all. My last van was a '94 E250 and I just hoped maybe a little sway bar technology had crept in.
