I think you will enjoy the quality and the thought that went into it.

I would try to identify the cause of the knocking sound as soon as you can - wouldn't want something simple turning into something major . . . . .

"Steering is off center and there is a slight loose knocking sound somewhere on the front end when going over small bumps."

I'm assuming your steering wheel isn't positioned where you feel it should be while going straight? That's an easy fix by removing the steering wheel and repositioning.

The slight loose knocking sound could be as simple as worn-out bushings or a possible broken sway bar. You should read this post https://newellgurus.com/showthread.php?tid=4714

Thanks for the link Jon. I was going though all the recent repairs the PO had done which included new airbags. I would think if the sway bar broke it happened afterwards. Regarding the steering wheel, the one in 312 is about 36" in diameter. It is rather uncomfortably large. I would prefer to swap it out with something a little more "bus" like. Funny I use the word bus, since my steering wheel is more akin to a wagon wheel size. I will be delaying possession of the rig since the buyer of my bus had to delay picking it up until Friday. We have an excellent repair shop local to us. Curious if this sway bar can be sourced locally for them to install.

36" steering wheel, wow! You might want to check the under coach storage for an adapter to allow you to use it for a spare wheel in case of a blowout.
