Hi Douglas,

There are both front and rear anti-sway bars available for your 2020 Tiffin Allegro Bus 40IP on Tiffin's Powerglide chassis from Roadmaster. For The front you'll need part # RM97GR and for the rear part # RM99MR. If you're wanting to add in a steering stabilizer as well then you'll need the Roadmaster Exact Center Steering Stabilizer # RM73RR and part # RM49MR for the mounting brackets and

Thanks for the quick reply. I have viewed the products and put them in the cart, but have not bot yet. Concerned about how well it fits and modifications that may need to be made. Also, what negatives may come to the front steering controls, rear axel, and chassis torque. Thoughts? I want to believe that these will significantly reduce the sway from: - curbs as you enter and leave businesses - changing road conditions such as highway curves, dips or bumps to one side of tires, elevation changes from road repavement, etc. I realize these buses are top heavy and some sway is to be expected, but will these help most with sharp sways and/or softer sways from highway curves. On highways, it would seem road camber would not be overcome since it is the road that creates the sway. Thoughts? On highways maybe an airbag adjustment system is better suited for road camber? Lastly, although I am mechanically inclined, the sheer weight of the bars implies that at least 2 people are needed to install. That being said, I am passing through Redbay on my way home and wonder if you can suggest a couple of shops that have installed your product? Thanks for your thoughts!

@Dougla The only negatives you'd have after installing an anti-sway bar would be if it was installed incorrectly. Anti-sway bars are essentially a torsion bar that wants to remain in it's natural state. When swaying starts it will lift up on the one side of the motorhome and pull on the bar, which will pull back because it's under a ton of tension to remain in its natural state. Having installed some myself I can say that they definitely do make a huge difference but motorhome's are so top heavy and built with the lowest standards in ride quality that you would want to also install an air spring or jounce spring to help more with sway and general cushioning of the suspension. We have an installer locator, which I've attached a link to below, that you can use to check out installers in the Redbay area.
