Question:

I have a 2011 Ford F350 single rear wheels. He has a Lance 975 camper that is 4000 lbs wet. The vehicle has a Hellwig rear sway bar and when driving there is a tremendous amount of vehicle sway. What are your recommendations regarding products that we can purchase and install that would address/cure this concern?

Helpful Expert Reply:

To correct your sway issue I highly recommend starting with a Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar part # RM-1139-173 and Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar part # RM-1139-180 this solid 1 1/2" 4140 Chromoly sway bars are far superior to the current ones installed. The stiffer and thicker material will be much better suited to the forces put on it with the in bed camper.

The second upgrade I recommend is the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-114-47 These will help to take a lot of the abuse off of the rear suspension and will work to fight the sway you are trying to get rid of.

Both of these are easy installs and can be done in an hour or hour and a half.
