Expert Reply:
From my available research on your 2021 Georgetown 36b5 motorhome, it has a Ford F-53 chassis and has a gross vehicle weight rating of 22,000 pounds. Unfortunately, for this particular model, we do not have a steering stabilizer available for your chassis model.
The good news is that we do have SumoSpring suspension available for your front axle of your chassis. For that option, I recommend the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs - 2 Piece - Front Axle # SSF-170-40-2. The SumoSprings provide you with greater overall control, reduce sway, and reduce bumps and shocks. The springs also help compensate for off-center loads.
If you are looking for rear-axle suspension, we do not carry a SumoSprings model that is compatible with your motorhome. However, for a great equivalent, I recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TFRF53A. Like the SumoSprings, the Timbrens work to improve overall control and stability. With the 8,600 pound load-leveling capacity, the Timbrens decrease rear sag for an even ride.
We also have front anti-sway bars that help with control. For those parts, I recommend the Roadmaster Front Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-148 and the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-149. Both of these dramatically increase overall handling. It is important to note that your factory u-bolt may not be long enough for the factory nut, washer and 1/2" plate of the # RM-1139-149. I recommend checking your U-bolts to make sure that you have 1/2" in order to add the plate. If you need longer U-bolts, you need either the # RM-590050-10 (if you have round U-bolts) or # RM-590050-00 (if you have square U-bolts).
