Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2018 Forest River Forester Motorhome E-450
Question:
A gentle man named Joseph on 5-12-2019 left a review and photos of his sumo springs and swore by them. I have pretty much the same coach in size and was wondering if this might help my coach, I'm tired of my coach bottoming out and knocking equipment loose. It rides worse then a U Haul truck.

Adjustable suspension enhancement would be your best option. This will give you the ability to add the exact amount of additional support you'd need to prevent bottoming out while also not making the suspension overly stiff.
So for that you'd want the Firestone Ride Rite kit part # F22ZR which is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Forest River class C 32 ft. on a Ford E-450 chassis.
For a compressor kit to make inflating and maintaining the air bags easy we have the Firestone kit part # F2097 which will work great. It has a heavier duty compressor which means the bags will inflate quicker. On the in-cab gauge is the buttons for inflating and deflating the bags.
