For a Thor Windsport based on a 2016 Ford F-53 V10 chassis the front-axle stabilizers we offer all require you to remove the factory sway bar. We have no front-axle kits that avoid this step. The Roadmaster # RM-1139-148 is the appropriate one for this chassis.

The Roadmaster # RM-1139-149 add a second sway bar to the rear of your Windsport.
