To improve the suspension and steering on your 2020 Thor Hurricane 29M you can add springs in the front and back along with a steering stabilizer and anti-sway bars in the front and back. Of course, while that will get you the ultimate riding experience, you may not want to do the whole thing at once, so to start I recommend adding springs to the rear and a sway bar to the front.
For the rear, I highly recommend the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs, part # SSR-184-40-1. These are jounce-style springs, so they have a progressive workload without the need of constantly being monitored for air pressure like air springs. They work independently, which further aids in stabilizing sway.
For the front, I suggest going with the Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer # RM33RR. This will greatly help to not only prevent sway but also to make steering much easier by compensating for any oversteering or drift caused by things like sudden crosswinds.
With both of these, you will have a very smooth ride. If, however, you decide you want to go the extra mile and add bars and suspensions to both axles, then here are the two additional components: For the front axle suspension, go with the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs, part # SSR-187-40-1.
For the rear axle sway bar, go with the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar, part # RM-1139-146. It works in the same way other sway bars do, balancing weight transfer and reducing body roll.
