I'm pretty happy with the way it drives now. My next suspension upgrade will probably be Bilstein HD shocks.


My big 32 ft. class C is very heavy at the rear, so I think it could use some sort of helper springs or extra leaf in the leaf springs. I don't think it needs any more spring rate up front, and the bigger front swaybar provides extra dynamic spring rate, so adding Sumo springs up front doesn't make sense to me, at least not for my rig. They would probably be helpful at the rear though.

I agree
You will benefit from rear Sumo’s

I have Helwig sways on front & rear, along with front and rear Sumo’s
I love the ride

I still need to add a steering stabilizer
Leaning toward the Bilstein Stabilizer (abt $100) vs the spendy SafTPlus ($450)
