Question:

I have a 2017 Ford E450 Class C Motorhome with V10 engine. Do I need to replace both front and rear sway bars at the same time, or can I do only the front and leave the factory sway bar on the rear?

Expert Reply:

You can replace the front sway bar only on your motorhome with a 2017 Ford E-450 chassis, but the best way to enhance the ride of your motorhome is to add an aftermarket rear anti-sway bar, which are superior to OEM sway bars. After that you can further improve the ride by adding a front anti-sway bar and then steering stabilizer. The combination of these three parts will dramatically increase the handling and comfort of your driving experience.

I recommend starting out by replacing your rear anti-sway bar with the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar for Motorhomes # RM-1139-147, which is a fit for your 2017 E-450. I have added a photo showing what this bar looks like when installed.

I have added links to some video reviews of these parts for you to check out as well.
