Recommended Sway Control For A 2008 Fleetwood Southwind Motorhome On F53 Chassis
Question:
Hi I have a 2008 Fleetwood Southwind 32vs on a ford F53. Im trying to figure out what would be the best option to get it to handle better in wind and passing trucks. Its all stock other than a read trac bar we installed. Ive looked at sway bars and sumo springs and timbren springs. Just not sure which would be the best option plus we will be towing a 4800lb vehicle behind us and im afraid that will make my issues worse. Thanks for your help

Sway bars are going to help you more than adding springs. I recommend the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-149 and Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148 to help reduce the body roll and improve stability so you don't feel the wind or air pressure from passing trucks so drastically.
