Suspension Enhancement Recommendations For A 2002 Thor Hurricane Class A Motorhome
Question:
I have a 2002 Class A Hurricane by Thor. I need to eliminate as much sway as possible when driving on highways with many curves and over paths. Is there a rear track bar that I can have installed? What is available for the front without changing out the swat bar on the coach?

For the front you can use the Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer with Mounting Brackets for Class A Motor Homes # RM-RBK22-RSSA to help keep your 2002 Thor Hurricane Class A Motorhome in line.
For the rear if your RV is 34' or more you'll need the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar Item # 1139-144. If your RV is 33' or less then you'll need the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar Item # RM-1139-143.
Note: These kits use a flat plate that is held in place by the leaf spring U-bolts on the rear axle. Check to ensure there is enough exposed U-bolt below the nut to accommodate the factory nut and washer once our 1/2-inch thick plate is installed above them. If you do not have enough exposed U-bolt you can order larger U-bolts with RM-590050-00 for U-bolts with a square top or RM-590050-10 for U-bolts with a round top.
