The Sumo Springs for the 2014 Ford F-53 chassis only fit the 16K to 22K chassis models but I do have an excellent option for you. Since your chassis is rated for 24K you can use Air Lift air bags, # AL88344, for the rear and # TFFF53B for the front. The front item is not an air bag system, it is a replacement bump stop. There are no air bags for the 24K chassis.
The benefit of air bags over fixed rubber springs is that you can adjust the air bags by adding or removing air for the best ride quality for you.
With these air bags installed you can use a compressor at home if you have one or a compressor at a gas station. Or you could install an on board compressor and control the amount of air pressure in the bags from the comfort of the motor home. You can use Level Command kit # F2168. This will allow you to adjust the front and rear air bags independently of each other.
When installing air bags the tubing cuts need to be as straight as possible so I also recommend tubing cutter # AL10530. I have included some links to the right on Firestone kits and a link to stability control for heavy duty vehicles for you.
