Or drill some holes in the bottom half inch of the sumo (Going straight up .... not sideways) so soften the first 1/2 inch or so? You could start with one hole then add more until happy with ride??

Any thought on these ideas to soften a firm Sumo if not happy with ride?

I think in the spring I will try shocks first... I really like my ride overall and I have the front sway bar and rear track arms replaced so it feels good on the road to me.

After installing Sumo's on the rear of my 23TR class C I doubt you would NOT like them if you go with the model recommended for your coach. I personally would not try to reinvent them. If I didn't like them I would remove them.
