- LVJ58ExplorerI wholeheartedly agree with Mr. Ford. I installed the FSD's on my front suspension and it greatly enhanced the ride comfort.
- DFordExplorerI improved the stability of our MH by moving the links to the swaybars closer to the axles. It's called the "cheap handling fix" and it works great. I had to replace the bushing on the swaybar right afterward because the fix put a heavier load on them. Highly recommended.
https://youtu.be/iWPIXOhrdMQ - DFordExplorerThe single most cost effective way to improve your ride is to replace your shocks with Koni FSD shocks. The cost of the shocks are around $170 each for a total of close to $700 but if you don't want to feel every tar strip on the highway, they're the way to go.
Check your fitment but these should work depending on the GVW of your chassis.

Inspect/replace any/all worn bushings with new parts. If they haven't been replaced, chances are your shocks are tired and in need of replacement. Have the alignment checked. Put the suspension back where it "was and should be" when it was new before you start to modify anything.
What do you mean, specifically, when you say, "improve" the ride.
