Are these fixes limited to Thor products?
I don't think so. Although you are correct, I don't presently own a Thor.
That I'm looking to buy a Thor doesn't mean I haven't driven many different motorhomes for 1,000s of miles each. Large trucks too.
A lot of new owners don't realize that a 12-foot high motorhome leans a lot more on curves than their car or SUV, and then incorrectly think that if they can prevent the lean, the motorhome will magically drive like a car.
Sway bars no doubt reduce lean/roll, but they can adversely affect handling in other ways, and also degrade ride quality. And it doesn't matter what vehicle you are talking about.
Ask yourself why sway bars aren't made stiff enough to essentially eliminate lean/roll. Suspension tuning is about compromise. If a little is good, more isn't necessarily better. That was my only point.
