After market sway bars and Koni shocks

I have a 2019 Thor Wind Sport 35M. Would like to improve the ride and handling. Was thinking of going with RoadMaster sway bars, front and rear and Koni shocks, any thoughts?

Sound like a good plan to me.

I have at Front HD swaybar + rear track bar and saftey steering stabilizer. Drives great now. Thinking of installing some HD shocks this year sometime.

I thought about adding a HD rear sway bar to my Axis (E450) as well. I already have a rear track arm. Do you think your rear swaybar + Track arm makes a big difference? I hate to waste time and money on a rear sway if I only notice a mild difference.

Every time I added something to help the suspension it helped. We have the F53 and it needs all the help it can get. I can’t speak to the E450.

Im thinking the same thing. She handles pretty good right now (IMO) but Im always looking for room for impovement. So even if its just 10% better I would be happy (I hope ) Thanks.
