Thanks. One more thing....if I "do" the front-end, is adjusting the back end needed? or is it a "see what happens" thing?
The front is the more critical. On my first MH I did the front but not the back. Major improvement. On my current MH I did both, figuring if I am already under there with tools, might as well. Again major improvement. Not sure if I can tell the difference from doing the rears but why not? May be slightly less tail wag, but not really perceptible. Could be different on different units. If I ever had to do it again, I would still do both for continuity and since you are already doing one end, it's a few minutes to do the other.
One tip that may not have been mentioned in the video. Have a small jack handy. get your MH as level as possible on the tires alone (without jacks). Despite getting it close it may still be off a bit, and when you loosen the sway bar, one side will be slightly higher than the other when you try and align to the holes. Do the higher/easier side first then use the bottle jack to nudge the lower side to align with the holes until you get the bolt in. Made it much easier. You might get lucky and be completely level, but I found having the jack handy was a good idea.
