Question:
I am interested in Sumo Maxim Springs or something similar if you think it is better. It is for a 2006 Ford F-53 chassis with a 22000# rating, under a Fleetwood Terra Class A Motorhome.

Helpful Expert Reply:
We can help you with suspension enhancements for your Fleetwood Terra Class A motorhome built on a 2006 Ford F-53 chassis. For the 2WD version we offer jounce-style spring kits from SumoSprings and Timbren for both the front and rear axles.
For the rear axle I suggest SumoSprings kit # SSR-180-54-1. This is appropriate for the GVWR of 22K and will deliver handling improvement like reduced sway. It is a no-drill installation. For the front axle you can use kit # SSF-171-40-2 which is also suitable for your GVWR. Links to all rear and front kits are provided for you.
The next level of handling improvement will come from installation of anti-sway bars and a steering stabilizer, such as Roadmaster rear-axle sway bar kit # RM-1139-149 which fits V8 and V10 models. It adds a secondary anti-sway bar that works along with the factory bar. For a steering stabilizer you can use Roadmaster Reflex Steering Stabilizer kit # RM-RBK4-RSSA for a V8.
