Expert Reply:
For your 1999 F-53 chassis, there are 2 different SumoSprings help spring options, and the correct kit for your motor home will depend on the vehicle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). If your motor home's GVWR is between 16,000 pounds and 18,000 pounds, you will want to use the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs, Rear Axle # SSR-185-40-1. These springs have a weight capacity of 3,000 pounds. No drilling is required to install this kit and the installation instructions are linked for you.
If your Bounder's GVWR is between 20,000 pounds and 22,000 pounds, I recommend the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs, Rear Axle # SSR-181-54-1. These springs have a higher weight capacity than the other kit, at 5,400 pounds. The helper springs in this kit are designed to replace the factory bump stop and they will require drilling for installation. The installation instructions for this kit are also linked for you.
