Expert Reply:
The issue you are experiencing is that motorhomes have a high center of gravity and are very boxy in design, therefore when a large gust of wind hits the body of the motorhome such as those which are caused by large passing vehicles on the highway you experience body roll which is something also refereed to as sway. This body roll essentially just feels like the motorhome is rocking side to side which then causes other problems such as steering etc. The best products to correct the issue with body roll are upgraded sway bars but if you already have these then the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer and Sway Control Kit part # SSA16 is the nest best course of action.
The SuperSprings are going to stiffen up the rear suspension so the large gust of winds won't have as much of an affect thereby reducing sway/body roll. The great news is that they are super easy to install.
