Breen, once you look under the coach you'll see what everybody is talking about, very simple modification, worst part ic crawling under the coach.

You will need a 15mm box wrench, 18mm socket, torque wrench set at 65 ft/lbs, scissor jack to move the sway bar up if it is tight, and some patience! If you are parked on level ground there is no tension on the sway bar. The bolts on my bar links were frozen, had to use penetrating oil to get them free.

If you go to you-tube and search F-53 CHF there are several videos, but none show the work actually being done. The pictures Techn0 posted are very good at showing what you will be seeing. Took me about 2 hrs, mostly because of the frozen bolts. Only had to use the jack on the front bar. While you're there check the bar mounts in the rear, several reports of them being loose. After you experience the difference you will be glad you did the CHF!!! Good luck!!!
