Needing Sway Control on a 2017 Thor Axis Class A on an Ford E-450 Chassis
Question:
I have a 2017 Thor Axis rv on a ford e-450 chassis. Alignment helped but still a little loose and white knuckle in high wind and semis. Which is best and what would the part #s be for either heavy duty sway bars or safe t plus.

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Thor Axis Class A Motorhome, I recommend adding front and rear anti-sway bars to help control your coach.
The Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-1139-176, and Rear Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-1139-147, will help reduce sway to improve overall drivability of the Ford E-Cutaway chassis. Adding the upgraded sway control bars will improve steering, allow for a more level ride over irregular surfaces, and will help reduce driver fatigue.
These bars upgrade the old steel 1 inch bar with an 1-3/8 inch chromoly steel bar with stronger polyurethane bushings. The upgrade materials will last longer and provide for a stronger point of contact on your coach's frame.
I have included a couple of product review videos and an article on stability control for heavy duty vehicles for you to review.
