Is Rear or Front Anti-Sway Bar Better For 2019 Thor ACE 29.3 Motorhome
Question:
Is better to install front or rear anti-sway bars, or both? 2019 Thor ACE 29.3
asked by: Gilbert B
Expert Reply:
When it comes to anti-sway bars, for all motorhomes, including your 2019 Thor ACE 29.3, it is better to have both rear and front anti-sway bars. That said, if you had to choose just one or the other, the better option is the rear anti-sway bar because their placement at the rear of the vehicle allows for the greatest improvement in handling because there is less stability at the rear of a motorhome.
Overall, aftermarket anti-sway bars are going to be a vast improvement for your Thor motorhome; they are better constructed with higher-strength, thicker steel than OEM sway bars, which gives them higher roll stiffness to combat sway. So while the addition of a rear anti-sway bar is definitely going to improve your ride, you can further enhance it with a front anti-sway bar and steering stabilizer. The correct fit for your 2019 Thor ACE 29.3 for these parts are the following:
- Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-146
- Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148
- Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer # RM33RR
The combination of these three parts will dramatically increase the handling and comfort of your motorhome, allowing you to enjoy your time on the road instead of exhaustively attempting to keep your rig centered at all times.
