Question:
I just got a 2022 Thor Axis Motorhome that I tow a trailer with a 2018 Hyundai Ioniq on since I can't flat tow it. As this is a new Motorhome, I have only done this once and I really didn't like all the body roll and sag in the rear. So with that being said, I am looking to add Sumo Springs to the front and back. I have the SSF-106-47 picked out for the front, but there are two 5k options for the rear. The 2 piece Rebel and single piece Maxim. Is one better than the other?

Expert Reply:
SumoSprings will definitely help with sag and body roll issues and the Solo # SSF-106-47 is definitely a good option for the front of your 2022 Thor Axis Motorhome. These will be a very quick and easy install on the Ford E-450 chassis as all you need to do is take the original jounce off and thread this one on.
Now to the back set though. Since you are looking at the 5,000 pound capacity options, I do prefer the Rebel - 2 Piece # SS42RR over the Maxim # SSR-106-47-1. Thus is due to the brackets attaching to the side of the frame and then around the leaf spring. With a 2 piece design you will have limitless movement, both up and down. A single piece will be more limited in its movement, so the Rebel is the way to go.
