The RAS Kit # RAS4611-DV can work in conjunction with the Roadmaster Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1129-107.

They have similar purposes but I think you'll gain a little bit from the RAS kit over the anti-sway bar. The RAS will strengthen the leaf springs and help with overall suspension. This will in turn help with sway like the anti-sway bar will. In addition, the RAS will reduce body roll while cornering which is often a major concern with a heavily loaded van.

Keep in mind neither will increase the weight capacity of your van.
