For your 2017 Ford E-450 Motorhome you are definitely going to want the higher capacity SumoSprings Maxim item # SSR-106-47-1 over the Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-130-47. The Maxim have a 5,000 lbs capacity that will help keep your RV level and minimize sway. The springs work independently from each other to compensate for off-center loads and reduce body roll during sharp turns. I have linked an installation and review video.

The Solo Custom Helper Springs item # SSR-130-47 only have a 1,500 lbs capacity and will not be enough for your motorhome.
