Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2019 Fleetwood Flair 35R
Question:
Hi. We have a Fleetwood Flair 35R 2019, F53 chassis, 22 000 GWRV. We Would like to know between Sumo or air lift 5000. As a truck/trailer mechanic I am familiar with air systems. After having read a lots on the internet it’s getting harder to chose. For us the most important is to get a smoother ride. Thanks.

Fundamentally SumoSprings are almost the exact same thing as air bags, they just don't require air so they can't be adjusted. So between the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers # AL88240 and the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SSF-170-40-2, I'd go with the SumoSprings since after they're installed you can just forget about them, and they would require no maintenance.
When you upgrade your suspension on a Class A motorhome you're also going to want to add the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs # SSR-187-54-1 for the rear axle.
