      Odds are it’s just because of the lack of a tag axel.
      The tag helps with weight but also keeps a coach tracking straight. Without a tag you wind up chasing the steering wheel…the wander some.
      A tag makes a big difference.

He did it when he added Jakes to the truck but never changed to a standard buffer switch because it worked just fine.
