Question:
Greetings - I have a 2018 Thor Windsport 29M and am looking at improving both the ride and the handling. I have a steering stabilizer installed and have had it aligned. To minimize sway, do you recommend to start with a track bar or an anti sway bar? Improving the ride of the coach is important as the current suspension aggravates my back problems. Thank you - and stay safe!

You are definitely on the right track for helping to make your ride more comfortable when traveling in your 2018 Thor Windsport 29M.
The first things we recommend to upgrade are the steering stabilizer, which you've already done with part # RM-RBK22-RSSA, and the anti-sway bars. For the front we have the Bushing Kit # RM-4139-127 which is designed to upgrade an OEM 1-5/8" bar if it exists, and for the back you can use the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-146.
If you happen to not have an OEM front track bar then instead of using the bushing kit mentioned above you can install the TruTrac Front-Axle Trac Rod # RM-TRAC-F550, but I'm pretty sure you should have a front OEM track bar.
The next upgrade to do is add some suspension enhanement. For that I recommend the SumoSprings because they are easy to install, and they require absolutely no maintenance so they will work when you need them to but you don't have to think about them after they are installed. For the front use part # SSF-170-40-2 and for the back use part # SSR-187-40-1. Sample isntallation videos have been linked for you to check out.
