Dunnlnn, You sound like me 5 years ago. I took our new rig at the time to THIS specialty shop that deals with motor homes all the time. They came up with a list and I said "Do it". Afterwards the rig with our 2006 Jeep Liberty 4x4 in tow handles perfect. It did cost us $3900, but worth every penny.
- rear Roadmaster heavy duty stabilizer bar
- front Roadmaster heavy duty stabilizer bar
- rear Henderson trac bar
- Koni-RV shocks all around
- Safe-T-Plus steering stabilizer bar
- front wheel alignment done with rig as would be loaded on trips.
I also learned recently that if the tow bar is not horizontal when hooked up, it encourages "bucking" of the tow vehicle. If your tow bar is high at the Liberty and low at the motor home, you will need to buy one of these and longer 76" safety cables, both sold by Roadmaster and other sources.
