Class A body roll
I know this topic has been covered many times. I purchased a 2016 Fleetwood bounder 35K this year with a 22,000lbs F53 suspension. These are very tall rigs and very top heavy. I performed the cheap...

I can see where new or beefed up shocks would help the sway somewhat. I think a combination of all of the above would help with every aspect of the suspension on these F53's. I just don't want to drop $7500 at one time to have the perfect ride. One question I do have. Has anyone added aftermarket adjustable sway bar linkages? What about just purchasing the adjustable linkage and tightening them to produce more downward pressure on the existing bar? Is this possible, or could I break the linkage and bar?
Linkages don't do that, what changes the sway bar stiffness is material, diameter, length, lever arm length and lever arm angle to linkage.
You don't need to buy anything the F53 has adjustable sway bars stock. Looking through this thread its actually surprising no one has mentioned the CHF (Cheap Handling Fix). You can just move the sway bar links in a hole front and back and you now have stiffer sway bars. Helps a lot, I did it after doing a rear track bar, both where noticeable improvements on the highway.
Some people do adjustable links or new brackets to try and get the sway bar back to 90 degrees to the links, but IMO its not necessary and that actually softens the sway bar back up some. Many like myself have just done that adjustment with no issues. The original guy who discovered it, J. Mckinely, has had it for over 7 years I believe.
