Awesome video! I bought a 2006 Pleasure Way Excel on a Ford E350 chassis and it was a real boat in the curves or making a turn, scary in fact. I put Wheel Adapter wheel extenders and a Road Master sway bar on the rear ( there was no sway bar in rear originally ) and it made a lot of difference. Only problem now is the steering works you to death. I want to do what you have done in your video. Thanks for the great information.

I followed your lead and got my 2023 class c motorhome suspension upgraded. I had Performance Ford Truck Country in Woods Cross, UT install the equipment. That consisted of Koni FSD shocks, Hellwig sway bars, Sumo springs and a roadmaster reflex steering stabilizer. Parts were $2,700 and install w/ an alignment was $1,100. It was 3.5 hours of labor. My coach drives fantastic now. The new shocks soak up the bumps much better and no more swaying coming out of parking lots or driveways. Also the steering stabilizer tightened up the steering and it tracks straight down the highway now. I would recommend these upgrades to anybody with a class c E-450 chassis motorhome. The way it drives down the road is dramatically improved!

I'm having WeldTec upgrade my Forester 3011DS suspension to a 6" lift with bigger all-terrain tires. Can't wait! Thanks!

Thanks for the video. 6 months ago we traded in our 2014 Forester 3171. We loved the coach but had put a lot of hard miles on it and wanted to try a class A. Even though we’ve now owned 8 motor homes over 35 years the only suspension upgrades we ever did was shocks and air bag suspension. These two items definitely made an improvement to the three coaches we had previous to the class A and wish we would have added more of these upgrades. When we purchased our 2022 Winnebago Vista 29V we were pleased to find the factory had gone to a larger front and rear sway bar. But we added Koni shocks, a Safe-T-Plus steering stabilizer and a SuperSteer trac bar. We are very happy with the results and only wish we did this to our Forester years ago. We did not install the Sumo Springs on our 30ft long class A on the advice of the local RV suspension shop we use. Their recommendation was that it would stiffen our ride too much. If anyone has installed them on an 18K F53 chassis please Le me know what you think of them. Thanks again. Good video

Best repair videos, subscribed

Just did the rear Hellwig Sway Bar on my 2017 Thor Chateau today. Took much longer than expected, but with the help of my 2 teenagers lifting it into place it wasn't too bad. Took a few minutes to find the stock torque specs because they didn't itemize them in the directions.

Thank you for the video, I want the number of shocks Bilstein thank you 🌷🌷

I just watched your video and while it was good advice, you know that old song "you got no one to hold them, got no one to fold them and when to run. I decided to run. there's no point in getting so upset you want to throw stuff and break things. That's where I was with that front shock and I started on it first thank goodness, I just hate blowing money on something that you should be able to do yourself. Again I thank you for your advice cuz it really was down the right street but just wasn't going to work for me.

Love your video, very informative. Question? Where did you get the grill that's on your front bumper, above the Green Bay Packers Plate? What is it called? Part#? Give my regards to Ms. Brenda... Thank you in advance...

Remove front shock top stud with a sawzall

Off topic question, did you add the wood grain on the E450 dash? I have a 2020 Jayco RedHawk 31F

Good video. I have a 2018 Forester 3271S E450 based Class C. I have done the Roadmaster steering stabilized and had the front end aligned. It made a big difference. How long did it take to put the SumoSprings in? Which version of SumoSpring did you put in? I see a lot of different ones listed on the SD Truck Spring site.

Good video. I have one question. I removed the driver side nut already...But the shock is impossible to come straight out. Seems like the frame and the lower stud is in the way. I wrapped it up after 1 hour and will try again later in the week. Thanks. 2013 E450

I don't see black sumo springs for the front....only for the rear. Looks like front is blue or yellow? I'm assuming this color difference is spring rates... Did you pick the black for a reason?

Where did you find rear air bag psi works best I’m finding 73 psi loaded is working best do you find different

I just returned from our 1st trip on our 2023 E450 28ft coach. Luckily, it was only about 400 miles as the ride was horrible and scary AF on the highway as we also flat towed our F150. Needles to say, that was how I ended up here. I will be doing these upgrades as soon as I can. Hopefully, before our next trip. Any other suspension upgrade necessary?

I know it's none of my business but I think those shocks may have been installed upside down; but I could be wrong.

Total cost of your upgrades?

What if that bear wants in?

Really did not see how you do it. Just talking

Great video sharing your experience with these upgrades. If your looking for additional ground clearance or even better ride check out WELDTEC DESIGNS.
