The best way to improve the handling and stability of your 2011 E-450 motorhome is going to be with a rear sway bar upgrade like the Hellwig part # HE78RR. This will make the biggest difference and honestly should be the first thing anyone with a motorhome installs if they care about ride quality and sway at all.
