I DIY installed the following in this order...
- Helwig sway front & rear
- SUMO front and rear
- Bilstein Steering Damper
- AirLift 1000 air springs front

The AirLift 1000 air springs (placed inside the coil springs) raised the front end about 1” when inflated to 50#. And, in doing so... the front SUMO’s no longer touch the front crossmember, thus not really offering any support while RV is driven straight

Also, I needed to add a spacer between the rear SUMO and frame in order for them to provide support.

My rig has nearly 20,000 miles so my next mod will be the Bilstein shocks.
