Expert Reply:

Yes, for suspension upgrades with this type chassis my preference is to suggest Roadmaster items and I always start with the front and rear anti-sway bars followed by a steering stabilizer as first recommendations.

For your 2015 Forest River FR3 Motorhome, I suggest the Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148. This has a diameter of 1-3/4" and constructed of thick 4140 chromoly steel for superior strength over that of the OEM installed bar. It is not just the slightly increased diameter of the aftermarket anti-sway bar over that of the OEM that improves handling, but that of the 4140-steel used and the improved polyurethane bushings. This is a confirmed fit to your 2015 Forest River FR3 Motorhome This will minimize sway and driver fatigue by improving the stability and driveability of your motorhome. The bar on this sturdy, effective anti-sway system mounts to the front axle and to the frame to balance weight transfer and reduce body roll.

For the rear of vehicle, I suggest the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar, # RM-1139-146. This is a 1-1/2" diameter bar constructed with the same 4140 chromoly steel and polyurethane bushings as that of the recommended front antisway bar. This includes heavy-gauge mounting hardware, easy-to-follow instructions and bushing lubricant. This attaches to the rear axle and to chassis using the weight of axle to brace frame in turns and is engineered to avoid interference with most popular aftermarket add-ons and accessories.

While we do not carry the requested brand of shocks for your vehicle we do have the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs, # SSF-170-40-2. And the Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement System, # TFFF53B. Between these two options I suggest the Timbren. Please take a look at the attached video links for each of these products on installed and tested on 2015 vehicle similar to yours.
