The first and most important suspension upgrade you will want to make on your 2018 Jayco Precept 36T is an upgraded rear anti-sway bar, the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar part # RM-1139-149. The Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar is going to help minimize the floating/rocking feeling while out on the highway which is typically the most common complaint with a motorhome and the weakest component from the factory.

The second most important suspension upgrade you will want to make is a set of SumoSprings, the SumoSprings Maxim Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-183-54-1 for the rear and the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs part # SSF-173-40-2 for the front. The SumoSprings are going to help minimize porpoising (up and down bouncing) while out on the highway which is yet another common complaint with a motorhome and one of the weaker components of the factory suspension.

The addition of the above three components will make a dramatic overall improvement to the ride and stability of your Jayco Precept.

The Extended U-Bolt Kit part # RM-590050-00 (square) or part # RM-590050-10 (round) may be needed to install the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar part # RM-1139-149 on your 2018 Jayco Precept 36T but I cannot give you a yes or no answer. The only way to know for sure would be to crawl under the motorhome and take a look at the factory u-bolts to ensure there is enough threads left to install an additional 1/2" plate.

Typically if your motorhome is leaning one way it just means either the manufacturer or you have it too much loaded on one side, but this could also be an indication that there's an issue with your suspension so I highly recommend everything is…
